To make this process easier, I always have cooked chicken on hand. If you have chicken on hand and leftover rice from stir fry, this can be throw together in a matter of minutes! It can also easily be made ahead of time and reheated.

Preparation Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for cilantro and mix thoroughly to combine. Make sure the yogurt and cheese are stirred in throughout the entire bowl. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to an oven-safe dish and top with extra cheese if you would like. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
