Preparation and Cooking
  1. Cook the rice according to package instructions and set aside.
  2. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook until golden brown and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and shredded mozzarella in a bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy, then fold in the spinach and artichokes.
  4. Add the cooked chicken and rice to the creamy mixture, stirring until well combined. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash of water or chicken broth to reach your desired consistency.
  5. Transfer the mixture to plates or bowls. Sprinkle with extra mozzarella if desired. Serve warm.
