Thank you for making these Ninja Speedi meals. Mine was sitting unused until I saw your videos. Sunday I made the shrimp alfredo and today I made this chicken and rice a roni. They turned out perfect. I would love to see more of these videos. I have already binged all your speedi vids. Keep them coming!😋
Excellent meal on a weeknight before the kids have hockey practice or music lessons or whatever.....no need for take out...make this meal, throw together a nice salad...and away you go! Perfect, love your videos James...keep em coming please.
love it... keep those meals coming will keep watching for sure! The chicken wings you cooked up was the first time I used the Ninja Speedi. Thanks for making it so easy to follow!
I have just purchased my Speedi and did 2 meals. A seasoned chicken breast and a burger. Simple. The chicken comes out as James describes, succulent and perfectly cooked. The burger was great too. This machine is so versatile. I’m looking forward to doing the crispy chicken as just the sound of it makes you feel hungry. Hope James can come up with some more recipes. Thank you.
Hey James! I just want to say thank you for your Speedi recipes. I've probably made this recipe at least six times and each time was very good. I do need to add a bit more water, but I'm at a higher altitude. I change up the seasonings on the chicken. I've also made pork chops instead of chicken. Thanks so much!
Thanks again James…. I’m making it again today. Enjoy your day!!! Love watching your videos on how to use the Speedi Ninja all the meals that I have tried with what you posted came out perfect. Thank you 😊 😊
Subscribed will be watching some of your videos I love my speedi and I see you have a few that maybe I can learn some new things. That meal looked amazing! Great job! I love one pot meals!
Awesome cook James! Nice addition to the Speedi recipes, how would pork work? Thinking of trying for the holiday. Hope you have a great New Year!🎉 CHEERS 🍻
I have a question: What do you think about cooking the green beans with the rice? Just put them on top of the rice. Seems like you wouldn't have to dirty up another pot or whatever you used to heat them up.
Okay,the chicken resembled yours very crispy,and the Rice a Roni was perfect. I have to say I prefer white chicken meat,but this recipe was good. Used two tbsps of canola oil instead of butter. I don't use butter anymore. How do you reheat any leftovers? In the microwave?
Hello James, I am so enjoying your video's on the speedi! I have a question for you on the rice a roni, I usually use 2 boxes at a time. Would I follow the directions that are on the box, say I am using the beef - it calls for 2 1/2 cups of water per box. Would I then use the actual 5 cups of water needed for a double batch? And would the speedi cooking time be the same -15 minutes? thank you for your help James!
@@CookinWithJames I used 4 3/4 cups of water, if I do another double batch, I think I will try just 4 cups of maybe just a bit less. The rice a roni was good, but I felt it tasted "watery" , don't know if I can describe it! I should have cooked it just a few minutes more maybe. But what was cool (and I am sorry now I didn't take a picture for you), the top had a nice crisp to it! That took me by surprise, so if I had cooked it longer, it would have been a really nice and crisp topping! Again, thanks for your video's!
Oh, see, I had to subscribe. I watched a couple of people use the Ninja Speedi and fell in love with it. That meant, put out the hints for birthday and Xmas for momma. Okay, so my son got it for me, but I didn't quite know what to make in it first. Well, you've solved that problem. Thanks, for a great vid. Looking forward to more ideas. Have a safe and happy new year.
Okay,I got Rice-a-Roni tonite. How much chicken are you using? I prefer chicken breasts,and I am using 35 oz of skin on,bone in chicken breasts. Will report back on results.Just finished dinner,and the chicken and rice turned out great. Had to add about 10 or 15 minutes to the cook,but the rice was done great.
James, nice looking meal! too bad the Ninja Speedi did not have 3 levels and then you could have cooked your greens beans with it. I wonder if chicken wings would work instead of chicken thighs. The dripping from the chicken must have made that rice more flavorful. I have everything to try but the chicken thighs, I have wings instead.
I have the cut green beans & ckn breasts...seriously thinking of going out right now & getting the Rice Roni ckn flavor...it looks soo easy.... LOVE this channel...(Brownie pans-none arrived ...yet) !! Happy New Year... Thanks!
@@CookinWithJames It was fun! Easy....I had to get help finding the Rice Roni Ckn flavor...lol...they separated it from others...I now have a few boxes! Cooking was so easy & truly fun bec it was! Thank you so much.... * Brownies have to wait....(medical things going on-but cooking tins are now here...will use 7inch sq to start)... Back when I do. Pls keep things coming... !
I am sad to report this recipe was my first unmitigated disaster after 2 excellent recipe results. The rice was sitting in water when the 20 minutes was up,and the chicken was done,but a little on the dry,chewy side. I had a box of Uncle Ben's brown rice,unopened,which I wanted to use up. I used a random selection of Italian spices in the rice.Used the recommended amount of water to cook the one cup of rice.😪😪
Never in my life browned the rice, you could do with watching Doug or pressure Crisp, both are good but they don’t brown the rice. It still looked good
@@CookinWithJames Made this tonight with bone-in, skin on thighs and cheddar broccoli Rice A Roni that I added some frozen broccoli florets to. I increased the water to 2 cups because with the cheese seasoning, I wanted a bit more moisture. I added two minutes to the cooking time. Per your suggestion, I started the chicken skin side down for the first 10 minutes. It came out perfect! The crispy skin was fabulous! I will definitely make this again!
@@CookinWithJames ty.....if you had just veg under there steaming away...would you want all the fat on the veg.....dont think i would..but my speedi turned up this morning ...looking forward to trying some stuff out

Yes it will be the same. If any water left at the end add a couple minutes. But ya it should be good
@@CookinWithJames Thank you for your quick reply! Will give it a try tonight and let you know.

Could you include a printed version of your recipes affixed to each video? I am old school. Thanks,James!

Thanks you as well. Check out my video on how to use the functions. That might also help
@@CookinWithJames Oh, I will.

Much appreciated
i love your recipes, i just bought the speed and dying to try it
Awesome. Tell me what you think. It's good
Cool James.
Making this recipe tonite. Question: I forgot the butter,can I use margarine instead? Thanks!

Thanks so much
I should be able to do this with the Ninja foodie because that is the only one that I have 😮 where did you get the hot seasoning from
Gonna make a Cauliflower rice with Sautee vegetables with that, Thank you
Sounds good
Good home cooking.
Thank you 😊
are there written instructions for this..I have no way to watch it while I prepare
Thanks James
You’re welcome Jocelyne
Hi James! I'm new to the Speedi and love your videos. What does the Speedi do that prevents skinless chicken from drying out and getting hard?
Steam
What are you trying to cook
James, nice looking meal! too bad the Ninja Speedi did not have 3 levels and then you could have cooked your greens beans with it. I wonder if chicken wings would work instead of chicken thighs. The dripping from the chicken must have made that rice more flavorful. I have everything to try but the chicken thighs, I have wings instead.
Wings will work great
I have the cut green beans & ckn breasts...seriously thinking of going out right now & getting the Rice Roni ckn flavor...it looks soo
easy.... LOVE this channel...(Brownie pans-none arrived ...yet) !! Happy New Year... Thanks!
That's it...I'm going to do it....will make tomorrow...this is FUN !
I’m telling you. It is Fun. And delicious

You have to use rice a roni. Or check out my white rice recipe
Never in my life browned the rice, you could do with watching Doug or pressure Crisp, both are good but they don’t brown the rice. It still looked good
Thank you. What about boneless chicken breasts? Same time?
Yes. Depending how thick the breast is
I am new to ninja speedi. Can you tell me how much water is required for 1 cup basmathi rice
i think its one cup of water to one cup of rice
How do you do with tenders?
Same. Just check temp after about 10 minutes
Why does my rice always burn??????
So can this work with bone-in , skin on thighs? About what do you think the additional time should be?
Yes it can. Probably same time. Start thighs skin side down for 10 minutes then flip over. Make sure it's atleast 165 degrees
@@CookinWithJames Made this tonight with bone-in, skin on thighs and cheddar broccoli Rice A Roni that I added some frozen broccoli florets to.

Hello, i don't know how much water i should put on the rice can you help pls
It’s in the video
@@CookinWithJames no im saying for white rice like bassmati rice. Should i just barley cover the rice with water or should i put more
Use the exact measurements it says on the bad of rice
Bag
@@CookinWithJames ok thanks 👍🏼👍🏼
doesnt all the fat from the chicken drop onto the rice?
Heck ya more flavor
@@CookinWithJames ty.....if you had just veg under there steaming away...would you want all the fat on the veg.....dont think i would..but my speedi turned up this morning ...looking forward to trying some stuff out
You could put veggies in foil
@@CookinWithJames good idea
