Cook sauce for maybe five minutes to thicken. Add salsa to sauce -- maybe half to two-thirds cup. Add about a cup and a half of rice, about a cup of chicken and about two tablespoons sour cream to sauce. Add more of the above as necessary to achieve creamy casserole texture. (You can add corn or other vegetables, as well.) Pour into casserole dish. Top with grated cheese and crumbs. Bake at 350 until bubbly. Serve with more salsa for topping at table.
