  • Total Time: 80 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup white rice, uncooked
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, chicken broth, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well.
  3. In a greased casserole dish, layer the uncooked rice at the bottom.
  4. Spread the shredded chicken evenly over the rice.
  5. Pour the soup mixture over the chicken and rice, spreading it evenly.
  6. Cover the dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.

Notes

For a lighter version, replace half the sour cream with evaporated milk and reduce the cheese. You can assemble the casserole a day in advance; just bring it to room temperature before baking.
