Note

For a crispier topping, you can melt extra butter and mix it with the breadcrumbs before sprinkling them over the dish.

Ensure the rice is fully cooked before adding it to the mixture to avoid a raw texture in the final bake.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warm.

If you prefer more vegetables, you can add diced carrots or peas to the mixture.
