Turn off heat, move pan from burner and let rice sit for 10 minutes covered. Allow rice to cool. Add rice to medium bowl and mix in the sour cream. Layer half of the rice mixture in the greased baking pan, sprinkle 1/2 of the mexican cheese on top of the rice, then spread the chilies over the cheese. Add the remainder of the rice to the pan spreading evenly. Add the remainder of the mexican cheese blend, cheddar cheese and parmesan on the top. Bake 350 degrees for 1/2 hour. Enjoy.
