This is a really good and quick recipe. I used a rotisserie chicken which made it so easy.

Green Chili Chicken Rice-A-Roni Casserole

1 box Chicken Rice-a-Roni, plus water called for on package

½ cup sour cream

10.75 oz. can Cream of Chicken Soup

4.5 oz can diced green chiles

1 tsp cumin

2 cups pepper jack cheese shredded

3 cups chopped cooked chicken

Preheat oven to 350º.

Lightly spray a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray.

Prepare Chicken Rice-a-Roni according to package directions.

In a large bowl, combine sour cream, Cream of Chicken soup, green chiles, cumin, 1 cup of pepper jack cheese and cooked chicken. Stir in prepared rice. Spoon into prepared baking pan.

Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of pepper jack cheese on top of casserole.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.
