I thought this receipe was really good and a nice addition to our dinner last night. Based on the other reviews I just mixed in sour cream until it looked creamy but I have no idea how much it actually was and I had no problem with it being dried out. I followed everything else except for eliminating the chilies because I didn't have any and I just don't think the texture of the chilies and the texture of the rice would really work out for me.

Very good recipe! I've prepared this dish on three different occasions - the last time being on December 29, 2007 - and it turned out great every time. I've always included more kernel corn than required. Since I didn't have green chili peppers, I replaced them with Turkish chili peppers. I'm sure you can replace the green chili peppers with chopped jalapeno peppers or the Muenster cheese with either pepperjack or Mexican / nacho blended cheese. I will definitely make this wonderful dish again.

Really great and creamy. Easy as pie to make and the flavor is nice. I omitted the corn as my husband is a big corn fan, and even without the staple ingredient, it came out lovely.

I used this recipe as a side dish for an anniversary party of about 100 people. It really got rave reviews! I used instant rice and adjusted the chicken broth to compensate for that. I also used regular sour cream and shredded chedder cheese just because they have those in the bulk sizes. Very good and different recipe! Thanks!

I was excited by this, then was very disappointed. Not much depth of flavor.

It was too bland for me and too much cheese. But definately worth a try for something different!

made this 4 times with adjustments each time & finally this rocks! guests loved it each time but now i finally got good ratios as original recipe is too dry. here is my way that everybody asks for...increase sour cream to 2 c., 2 cans of diced grn chilies, 1 large can of corn & 2 cans of drained/rinsed black beans. also needed a few good dashes of emeril's seasoning to bring it from bland to WOW! awesome potluck or group dish!

Sooo good! Used half brown rice and half converted rice, chicken bouillon instead of broth and frozen corn. That's what I had on hand. My family, including the small grandchildren loved it. A definate keeper - thanks for sharing this recipe!

OH! This was good! I made a few changes to go with what I had and what I like... I didn't have any cilantro and I left out the corn... and I used pepper jack cheese in and on the rice. It was so yummy!

It was okay, but the flavor seemed a bit lacking. I think I'd put salsa in it if I tried again.

My family LOVED this rice, even my picky 5 year old! I used chicken boullion instead of broth...and did add extra liquid, and used frozen corn instead of canned. We decided this was definitely a keeper....a truly different, good and easy recipe! We will make it again!

I had something similar to this a friend of mine had made and I was trying to re-create it. I didn't have any cilantro on hand and I didn't want to use the green chilis but pretty much stuck to the other indgrediants. I used sharp cheddar cheese because that's what I always have on hand and probably prefer it anyhow. My friend had some roasted red peppers on the top of hers and that was nice too. A good side dish to serve instead of plain white rice for a change.

This is a great recipe to accompany a mexican dinner. It does take a bit of work, but a nice change from the boxed variety of mexican rice. Very yummy!

I thought this was great. I know I always say this but how can you go wrong with sour cream? Very tasty. Even the people at my house who don't like rice ate it...
