Pin This RecipeWe’ve really been into making rice casseroles lately. I was wanting something different last week and decided to try my hand at a Chicken Pot Pie Rice Bake. It turned out great! I loved that the casserole was a meal in one pan – chicken, veggies, and rice. No need for extra side dishes. Just pop the casserole in the oven and dinner is ready in about 30 minutes.
This casserole is super easy to make. Start with making some rice. Next, mix together chopped cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, cheddar cheese, mixed vegetables, and milk. Stir in the cooked rice. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and bake. Easy peasy!
To cut down on the prep time I use rotisserie chicken in casseroles like this. I used instant white rice in this casserole. You can substitute instant brown rice. Make sure to follow the directions on the box. Brown rice has different cook times. You can also eliminate the instant rice and water in this recipe and use 4 cups of cooked rice.
As I said, this casserole is really a one dish meal. You don’t need a bunch of side dishes. We usually just make some biscuits and maybe a salad. Here are a few of our favorite recipes from the blog that go great with this yummy chicken casserole:

Delicious pot pie easy and fanastic
So good. All ingredients were on hand, although I used leftover turkey in place of chicken. Such a great dish for leftovers. Will definitely be making this again.
I use the Success rice in a bag. Is that considered instant or cooked? And if it’s cooked I don’t have to use water?
You still have to cook the rice in a bag. You will need 4 cups of cooked rice.
Thank you
About 3.5 cups
I dont use instant rice, in fact have never seen it here. How much cooked rice does 2 cups uncooked instant rice yield?
This is delish! I used a gluten free cream of chicken soup and my entire family enjoyed it.
Is it two cups of cooked rice or uncooked rice?
two cups of uncooked instant rice – you cook it in the first step of the recipe. Enjoy!
Could I make the rice in a rice cooker and then combine that with the other stuff?
I think that would be just fine. Enjoy!
I don't have sour cream. Can i substitute with something else??
Do you think you can make this in the crockpot? I want to use uncooked rice though.
I love this recipe. Cream of #### soup with chicken and sour cream is so comfy. Thanks for sharing.
Wishes for tasty dishes,
Linda
Such a perfect weeknight dinner — especially for my picky kiddos. Adding this to the list!!
