Our Chicken Flavored Rice

If you’re like everyone else we know, you’ve likely got a few packets of easy-to-make rice side dishes tucked away in your pantry. They’re perfect for rounding out a meal or whipping up as a full dinner with plenty of delicious add-ins. Our favorite flavor? Chicken—always chicken! So you’d better believe that when we started creating Hibernate emergency food storage kits, we knew freeze-dried Chicken Flavored Rice had to be a part of them. And fortunately, it makes a perfect emergency food for more than just the delicious taste!

Read on to get to know our beloved freeze-dried Chicken Flavored Rice!

Why We Love Freeze-Dried Chicken Flavored Rice

What is it about chicken flavored rice that just always hits the spot? At Hibernate, we knew we had to capture that perfect flavor, but we also wanted to create a healthy meal that is easy to store and prepare. Our tasty freeze-dried rice recipe checks all the boxes! We spent years perfecting our fan-favorite Hibernate Chicken Flavored Rice so that it would become a go-to for all our savvy emergency food stocking customers, but also make a great addition to the everyday pantry.

We love Hibernate’s Chicken Flavored Rice because it starts with the highest quality rice (one of the best emergency foods out there!). Once the rice gets properly freeze-dried, it locks in all our delicious flavors and the essential nutrients found in each little grain. Then it’s packaged in a way that ensures it’ll stay that nutritious and delicious for 25+ years . . . or until your next craving strikes! The simple add-water-and-simmer set of instructions yields fluffy, flavorful rice the entire family will enjoy, emergency or not.

Why We Added Chicken Flavored Rice To Our Food Storage Kits

We’ve been pretty clear on why we added our Chicken Flavored Rice to our food storage kits, right?! Well, let us reiterate. We added it because:

• It's mouth wateringly delicious.
• It’s super simple to whip up for a weeknight side meal or as a more filling dish in case of an emergency.
• It stores incredibly well (for literal decades!) without losing flavor.
• It’s a great foundation for creating a variety of meals.
• It’s a nutritious way to fuel your body during stressful times.
• It’s what we would feed our families in good times or bad.

The best news is that you can find our freeze-dried Chicken Flavored Rice in every one of our long-term food storage kits, alongside a variety of other delicious and nutritious freeze-dried meals. A great place to start would be a Hibernate 6-Month Premium Food Supply, but you could also supplement your current food storage with a smaller 2-week supply of freeze-dried emergency food, or go big with an entire year’s worth of Chicken Flavored Rice, and other good stuff like Hearty Vegetable Soup, Italiano Marinara Pasta, and Vanilla Pudding—a magical emergency food trifecta if there ever was one!

Hibernate’s Chicken Flavored Rice Nutrition

The nutrition offered in our freeze-dried food storage meals is incredibly important, which makes Hibernate pretty unique in the market. Many companies offer empty calories, sometimes at a lower cost, but at the cost of fueling your family with less complete foods with far lower nutritional value. Our Chicken Flavored Rice nutrition is no exception to our high standards. In each serving of this freeze-dried rice meal you’ll find:

240 Calories

12 g Fat

30 g Carbohydrates

1 g Sugar

4 g Protein

But beyond the numbers, you’ll also find our rice is enriched with iron, niacin, thiamine, and folate—all of which are incredibly beneficial when under stress as they support the nervous and digestive systems and work together to increase the body’s ability to turn food into energy.

And, because our Chicken Flavored Rice has such a universally-beloved flavor, it’s perfect for using as the starting point for a number of creative and nutritious meals.

Favorite Things To Add To Our Chicken Flavored Rice

Let us be perfectly clear—Hibernate’s freeze-dried Chicken Flavored Rice is so incredibly good on its own. Like, so good you would never know it was freeze-dried food designed for an emergency. But we’re not opposed to tossing in a few other favorites to mix things up and keep meals interesting all year round. Here are some of our preferred Chicken Flavored Rice mashups:

• Add in alllllll the veggies. Fresh, frozen, or freeze-dried vegetables like broccoli, peas, corn, and onions all make great additions to any chicken-flavored rice dish.
• Top it with cheese! Whether you’re a fan of cheddar, swiss, or parmesan, making a rice dish cheesy is never a bad idea.
• Bulk it up with actual chicken. Freeze-dried chicken is perfect for a quick or emergency situation, but fresh or frozen works well, too, if you’ve got it.
• Bake it up as a casserole with plenty of broccoli, cheese, and chicken. A classic option that is essentially irresistible for anyone.
• Mix things up with extra spices and flavor. Turn it Mexican with some added cumin and chili powder, add corn and black beans, and then serve it with chips, avocado, and lime wedges. Then experiment and take your Chicken Flavored Rice on a flavor trip around the world!
