Preheat oven to 350ºF. Lightly spray a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray.
Prepare Chicken Rice-a-Roni according to package directions.
In a large bowl, combine sour cream, Cream of Chicken soup, green chiles, cumin, 1 cup of pepper jack cheese and cooked chicken. Stir in prepared rice. Spoon into prepared baking pan.
Sprinkle remaining 1 cup of pepper jack cheese on top of casserole. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.

I used rotisserie chicken for the cooked chicken in this casserole.
I suggest using Unsalted Cream of Chicken Soup in this dish to control the sodium.
