Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with non-stick spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, chicken broth, cooked rice, and frozen mixed vegetables.
Season the mixture with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the chicken mixture.
In a separate bowl, combine the crushed Ritz crackers with the melted butter. Stir until the crackers are evenly coated.
Spread the cracker topping over the top of the casserole to create a crispy layer.
Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly around the edges.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your comforting Cream of Chicken Casserole!
