Creamy Chicken and Rice Casserole
Steps
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Shred the rotisserie chicken and set aside. Thaw the mixed vegetables in a colander or strainer and run it under warm water until the veggies are no longer frozen.
In a mixing bowl, combine shredded cooked chicken, thawed mixed vegetables, minute rice, cream of chicken soup, milk, minced garlic, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Add in 1½ cups of shredded cheese and fold in gently. Transfer to the greased 9×13 inch baking dish and spread smooth.
Sprinkle on the remaining 1½ cups of shredded cheese.
Bake uncovered for 30 to 35 minutes, or until rice is tender.
Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve warm.
