This tasty and comforting dish is a cinch to throw together, and you'd never suspect that the creaminess comes from reduced-fat ingredients. It lends itself to substitution, so if you're not a fan of certain tastes, you can easily switch to another variety of cream soup and/or use other veggies. I recommend using rotisserie chicken for added convenience.

Ingredients

  • rice: 1 cup
  • ¼ cups chicken broth: 1 piece
  • olive oil: 2 Tbsp
  • white mushrooms: 2 cups (sliced)
  • onion: 1 piece (chopped)
  • cooked chicken: 2 cups (shredded)
  • fat-free cream of chicken soup: 1 can (10.75 ounce can)
  • light sour cream: 1 cup
  • milk: 0.5 cup
  • chicken broth: 0.5 cup
  • seasoned salt (such as Lawry's®): 1 Tbsp
  • ground black pepper: (to taste)
  • cheddar cheese: 1 cup (shredded)
  • garlic-and-butter flavor croutons: 0.25 cup (crushed)

Stir chicken, chicken soup, sour cream, milk, 1/2 cup chicken broth, seasoned salt, and black pepper into the mushroom mixture. Reduce heat to low. Add cooked rice to the saucepan; stir until rice is evenly mixed in. Transfer mixture to prepared baking dish.
