A delightful and easy-to-make cheesy rice dish with a fiesta twist.
Combine the rice, water, diced tomatoes with green chilies, and chicken bouillon in a mixing bowl.
Ensure the bouillon is evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Transfer the mixture to a greased microwave-safe dish.
Greasing the dish prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Cover the dish and microwave on high for 10 minutes.
Check halfway through to ensure the rice is cooking evenly.
Stir in the sour cream and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the cheese melts evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top and microwave uncovered for 1 minute or until the cheese is melted.
Let the dish rest for a minute before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve warm and enjoy your Cheesy Fiesta Rice Bake.
Garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions for added freshness.
