Directions

Preheat the oven to 350° F.
Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Add the diced onions and cook for 5 minutes, until softened.
Add the chicken broth, olive oil, and rice to the pot and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer.
Cover tightly and cook for 7 minutes.
Add the broccoli, replace the cover, cook for 8 more minutes. Refrain from stirring.
Turn off heat, leave the cover on. Let the rice stand for 10 minutes. Any rice on the bottom of the pot will release during this time.
Add the hot sauce, diced ham, condensed soup, sour cream, milk, and half of the cheddar cheese. Stir until well-combined.
Spread into a lightly greased 9 x 13 casserole dish.
Top with remaining cheddar cheese.
Cover and bake for 15 minutes.
Combine the Ritz cracker crumbs and butter. Spread over the top of the casserole and bake, uncovered, for 10 additional minutes.
