Ingredients
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a casserole dish or 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
In a large bowl, toss together the cooked chicken, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt.
Mix in the broccoli, white rice, soup, sour cream, and cheddar cheese.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the crushed snack crackers over top of the chicken mixture.
Pour the melted butter over the crackers.
Bake, uncovered, until the casserole is bubbly, about 35-40 minutes. If it starts to brown too quickly, place foil over the top.
Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
