Heat a little cooking oil in a large skillet. Add the bite-size chicken and season with salt, black pepper, paprika, chili flakes, and onion powder. Cook until the chicken is completely cooked through. Prepare both packets of creamy chicken sauce according to the package directions, using the required amount of milk or water. Spread the cooked rice evenly across the bottom of a large baking dish. Add the seasoned chicken in an even layer, then pour the creamy chicken sauce over everything. Generously cover the entire casserole with shredded mozzarella. Bake in a preheated oven until the casserole is piping hot and the mozzarella is completely melted and bubbling. Finish briefly under the broiler for a deeply golden, bubbly cheese topping. Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving warm with fresh salad. Chef's Tip: Since the rice, chicken, and sauce are already cooked before assembling, the casserole only needs enough oven time to heat everything through and melt the mozzarella. Broil briefly at the end for that irresistible golden cheese crust.
