Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup Long-grain white rice, cooked
  • 10.5 oz can Cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup Chicken broth
  • 1 cup Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 0.5 cup Sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cooked rice, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, mixed vegetables, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Stir well until everything is evenly mixed and coated in the creamy sauce.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top, if desired.
  5. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  6. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through.
  7. Let rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.

Notes

For extra flavor, add sautéed onions or mushrooms to the mixture, or substitute cream of mushroom soup for the cream of chicken soup.
