 That is my favorite one. Out of all the tic-tacs, tic-tacs. And he's African need a nap. Today I am making viral one pot recipes to see if they're worth the hype. I'm not gonna lie. I'm having a lot of fun recreating these viral recipes. And because it's summer, I really was just looking for the one pot meals that are easy, fast, and hopefully delicious. All right guys, you're ready. Let's go try them. Okay, the first recipe I'm making is a one pot chicken and rice. Now this is from Cooking with Likes. It has over three million views. So here's hoping it's good. Oh, it looks good. Looks really good. Okay, she's setting it aside. Onions, butter, garlic. What else am I seeing in there? Rice and chicken broth, okay. Ooh, put the chicken back in. Cook it up. That's easy. That looks super easy. I love how she's dishing it up. My kids would eat it that way. They love everything separate. All right, let's try. Before I start, you guys saw my last video where I accidentally melted my cutting board. My husband, he cleaned it all off. It's looking good. So this one doesn't have instructions or measurements, ingredients, anything. So we're just gonna attempt it and see how it goes. They're with me. So we're gonna start by oil on the bottom of the pan. It looked like oil, so I'm guessing. That's what we're going to do here. Now because we're having all kinds of weird shortages, there are no chicken thighs. That's what she's cooking with. So we're gonna do chicken breast. I'm gonna cut them a little bit smaller. Now she seems a little chill like me. So it looks like she used season salt on our chicken. So that's what I'm going to do. We're just gonna season this really, really well. And I did cut my chickens in half. My chickens, my chicken breasts, there we go. And we're gonna season these babies pretty good. They're all seasoned, ready to go. Now they're not cooked all the way through before we cook them. So they are nice and brown. Don't worry, we will finish cooking them. So once your chicken's out, we're just guessing here. But I did see butter, so we're gonna put two tablespoons of butter in here. I saw some garlic, so I'm just gonna do about a teaspoon of garlic. And I saw some onions, so we're gonna do about a fourth cup or so of onion. Fourth cup, half cup, half an onion. Whatever, whatever floats your boat. And we're just gonna mix that all up. Onions are browned. She added about two cups, I'm guessing. We're gonna add two cups of chicken broth and about a cup of rice. And hopefully, hopefully that will be enough. I'm gonna spread this all around, cover all the rice. Then I'm just gonna throw the chicken right back in. We're gonna cook this up for about 20ish minutes, at least until the chicken's cooked. The rice is cooked. We're gonna cover it, put it on low for 20. Timer went off. Ooh, looks really good. Now for the taste test. That's really good, I love it. Five out of five. Five out of five, woohoo. Okay, this next one is from Jordan Darien. I hope I'm saying that right. 12 million views, it doesn't have a name. But we're gonna call it like taco beef rice or something like that. But you guys, you just gotta watch. Okay, I don't love when meat is frozen. Taco seasoning. We must be soul mates because there is no measuring here, it's just throwing. Onions, good. I mean, it's looking good. I hate when meat is frozen, when you try and cook it. That's like the worst thing. Add in some beef broth, that looks good. That's looking good so far. And some water. Okay, and a lot of rice. It's looking okay. If it was me, I'd probably drain the grease, but I mean, you do you. Okay, more taco seasoning. We're just throwing it on in there. I like it. Okay, she cooked up the rice, it cooked everything up. Oh, nacho cheese, she's had a half can. Now we're going for the full on can. Serves it with cheese. Doritos, salsa verde. Okay, here we go. I am not going to use frozen beef because I just don't want to. But I like what she was doing. You know, she was just throwing things in. So some garlic, some pepper. And then this is my favorite part. There's no eyeballs here. She was just like going to town on taco seasoning. So I got a big container taco seasoning, going to town just like her. I'm a fan. If you notice, she also used the chopster. I was proud. You're just going to chop it up. Oh wait, one sec, I forgot. She added some onion in there too. We're going to just throw that in there while we're here. All right, all done cooking. Now I'm just going to drain the grease really quick. Now we're going to add, she added four cups of beef broth. A little beef broth, look. It worked for her so I feel good about it. She added some water too. I'm not sure how much water so I just put a little bit of water in here. Yeah, okay, there's my water. Okay, I'm good about it. Now she said a couple of cups of rice. So I'm guessing two cups of rice. We're just guessing it will work. I'm hoping it will work. Mix our rice in just a little bit. And my favorite part of the whole thing is, she just added like a ton more taco seasoning. Then she just did a low boil until the rice was cooked all the way through. So it takes about 20-ish minutes for your rice to cook. She didn't cover hers, but I'm going to cover mine. Okay, our rice is done. Meat is done. Now I understand why she needed to add a little bit more liquid in there. That is a lot. This is a lot. Then she added a whole entire can of the nacho cheese. So that's what we're going to do. Okay, then we're just going to mix in all the cheese. To finish up her recipe, she adds some cheese on top. She adds Doritos, but I'm out of Doritos. The kids polished those babies off. So we're adding Fritos. Closing up, right? Then we're going to add some Salsa Verde on top. Taste testing. That's not my favorite. I'm going to give it a two, a two out of five. This Salsa Verde is a little too strong for me if I was doing it again for my toppings. Cut out the chips. You don't even need any more cheese. Plenty of cheese. I would probably add lots of vegetables like tomatoes, lettuce, olives, all kinds of stuff. Make it like a big taco salad. Add some lettuce in there too. I think that would be delicious. But with the toppings that she added, even though I know mine is a little different, I didn't have Doritos, it's just a little much for me. So two, two out of five. All right, taste it. Tell me what you think. Can I give it a five out of five? Even though I didn't love it, my kids did. Okay, and the last one is from a girl mom 10. This one has 13 million views. So she is making creamy sundried tomato chicken pasta. Okay, oh, she's using the oil from the sundried tomatoes. That's a great idea. Adding some chicken, lots of seasoning. Okay, chicken is done. Adding the Parmesan removed it. Okay, adding the butter, garlic, all the good stuff. Adding water, bring it to a boil. Okay, I looked for this pasta everywhere. I could not find it, so I have to use a different pasta. This looks good. I love how you can make some vegetables into my kids. They won't even know they're in there. More Parmesan, this is my kind of dish. And the sundried tomatoes might be one of my favorite things to add in pasta dishes. Have the chicken back, that looks amazing. I love how she used the oil from the sundried tomatoes. I never thought of that. I usually kind of just dump it out and don't use it. So love this idea. Next, she added one pound of chicken breast, but mine is closer to two pounds because I like a lot of chicken. Now to me, it looked like she had three teaspoons, heaping teaspoons of Italian seasoning. And because I have a little more chicken, we're gonna do like really heaping here. Then she had a heaping teaspoon of paprika, and then she just sprinkled on some crushed red pepper flakes. Then we're just gonna cook the chicken until it's pretty much cooked through. Once your chicken is done, it smells so good. We're gonna add about a fourth cup of Parmesan. We're gonna mix this just for a second, and then we're gonna remove the chicken from the pan. We're adding two tablespoons of butter, two cloves of garlic, and you're supposed to add a shallot, which I forgot to buy, so we're just giving that step. I apologize. We're just cooking this until fragrant. So next we're going to add three and a half cups of water. I'll shoot. Before the water, I supposed to add one more teaspoon of Italian seasoning. But you know what? We're mostly just kind of seasoning the water right now to do the pasta, so we're just gonna mix it in now, and it will be just fine. We're gonna turn this up high, and when this is boiling, then we're gonna add in the pasta. All right, now that it's boiling, we're just gonna add one pound. We're gonna cover this pasta so it's all, we don't want any hard pasta. Then we're gonna set the timer for eight minutes. Once your noodles are done, you're gonna add one cup of heavy whipping cream, two teaspoons of Dijon mustard, two cups of spinach, and I'm just gonna eyeball this. And the juice of a lemon. Now I'm cheating because that's how we roll here. So we're just doing a little bit of lemon juice here. Then we're just going to mix this around so everything's incorporated and the spinach cooks down just a little bit. Once that's cooked down, I'm gonna go ahead and add eight ounces of sun-dried tomatoes. Now you can cut them into smaller pieces if you want to. This is what mine look like. They're kind of like sliced or diced. Yeah, it's about eight ounces. If your family doesn't like the tomatoes, you don't have to do a ton, but I think they add a ton of flavor. Now once everything is mixed in, we're gonna go ahead and add in our chicken. Now I have a lot of chicken here. You don't have to use this much. I use about two pounds, but I love chicken more than I love pasta. So that's why I do it this way. All right, this one might be my favorite viral TikTok so far. Out of all the TikToks, I give it a five out of five and number one out of the three. Thanks for stopping by. If you want more viral one-pot meals, I have more right up there. And I'll see you next time. Bye.
