Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked white rice, diced ham, shredded cheddar cheese, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and milk. Stir until the mixture is well incorporated.
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-5 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
Stir the sautéed onion, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt into the rice and ham mixture. Mix everything thoroughly.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and grated parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the casserole for a crispy topping.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
