- In 3-quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and cook the onions in the butter until tender (3 to 4 minutes). Stir in the rice mix, seasoning packet and uncooked white rice. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Stir in the broth and water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover; simmer 20 minutes (liquid will not be fully absorbed and the mixture will appear "soupy").
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Transfer the mixture to a very large mixing bowl; stir in the chicken, tomatoes, chiles, basil, chili powder, cumin and pepper.
- Pour the mixture into a 3-quart casserole dish that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake, covered, for 20 to 30 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle with cheese, and bake for 5 more minutes. Serve hot. Top with guacamole and sour cream, if desired. Pass lime wedges for squeezing too!

MAMAW'S CHICKEN AND RICE CASSEROLE
I grew up on this recipe, my Grandmother got it from a lady from church at a pot luck a long time ago! She passed it down to my mom and it's always been a family favorite. Quick and easy for school nights, and the leftovers are just as good! You can use less butter on top of course, my Momma and Mamaw always put the full stick on top (gotta love Southern ladies and their butter!)

TEXAS RICE
It is not known where this recipe originated, but it has been used as a hot dish on outings and potlucks for at least 30 years. Rice and ground beef in tomato sauce, baked under a layer of shredded cheese. A great way to feed several with hamburger, and easy to keep on hand ingredients. Leftovers can be made into quick roll-ups by microwaving in a tortilla.
