Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole

This recipe is so easy and delicious:

1 cup reduced fat sour cream
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 Tbsp dijon mustard
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups uncooked instant rice
20 oz cooked chicken breast (You can use a 20oz bag of Kroger's grilled chicken from Smith's or about 3 breasts should do it)
4 1/2 oz deli sliced ham, cut into pieces
1 pkg. (6oz) swiss cheese, cut into pieces
1 cup frozen peas (optional)
1 cup Corn flakes, crushed
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 Tbs. melted butter

Preheat oven to 400

Wisk together sour cream, chicken broth, dijon mustard and black pepper in a large bown until smooth, Add rice, chicken, ham, cheese and frozen peas; stir to combine.

Pour mixture into a 13x9 inch baking dish and spread evenly

Mix together crushed corn flakes, parmesan cheese and melted butter in a small bowl. Sprinkle evenly over top of casserole.

Bake uncovered on center oven rack for 25 minutes until heated through and topping is golden brown.

Just a note, I served my peas on the side and I also added more corn flakes to the top because 1 cup didn't seem like it was enough. Very good.
