Istruzioni

RICE: Cook the rice with water, according to package instructions.

ROUX: Meanwhile, in a skillet, over medium heat, melt the butter. Slowly whisk in the flour until completely combined with no chunks (a thick dough will form). Stir over medium heat for 1 minute. Add in the 1/2 tablespoon Italian seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, and 2 teaspoons bouillon powder.

FINISH GRAVY: Gradually (while whisking constantly) add in the chicken stock or broth and then the milk. Bring to a boil and then immediately reduce the heat to low. Stir over low heat until nicely thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the 1/4 cup sour cream and 1 cup Cheddar cheese. Mix until melted and smooth and then stir in 4 cups shredded chicken (See Note 1). Taste sauce and adjust seasonings. Add salt if needed (See Note 2); flavors should sing!

TOPPINGS: Pick as many toppings as you'd like (we think canned crushed pineapple or freshly diced pineapple and chow mein noodles are must-haves!) and separate toppings into bowls.

SERVE: Add rice to plates, and top with chicken gravy. Let everyone pick their toppings and add them right on top. Enjoy immediately.
