Protein : Cook and crumble 1 pound of ground beef, ground turkey, or ground chicken instead of the chicken chunks. Be sure to drain the skillet pan of any excess grease or moisture from cooking the ground meat in it.
Make It Spicy! : This queso chicken and rice already has a slight kick to it, but if you want to make it even spicier then there are several things you can do. Try using a can of medium or hot Rotel. Add some cayenne pepper or chili powder in with the other dried seasonings. Add a can of diced green chiles or chopped jalapeños in with the broth and nacho cheese.
Beans : Add a can of black beans or pinto beans in with the nacho cheese sauce and chicken broth. Make sure the beans have been drained and rinsed prior to adding them to the pot.
