Scale
  • 4 cups shredded cooked chicken (about 2 large breasts)
  • 2 cups instant rice
  • 1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup frozen diced onion and bell pepper blend
  • 1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes with chilies (like Rotel), undrained

  • 1 (1.12-ounce) packet fajita seasoning (I prefer McCormick)
  • 1 (8-ounce) package shredded Mexican blend cheese (about 2 cups)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

  • Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and spread it evenly. Wrap tightly in aluminum foil. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until the rice is tender.
