5.When the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and transfer it to a bowl to cool for a few minutes.
6.Mix the sausage and rice with the roasted poblano chiles, cilantro, sour cream and cheese until well combined.
7. Pour the rice mix into a 8 x 10 baking dish. Sprinkle the top with about 8 ounces of cheese and bake for 20 minutes or until the top is melted and golden brown.
8. Remove from the oven and top with the rest of the cheese. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes and serve.
