Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, mix the rice, cream of chicken soup, water, shredded cheddar cheese (reserve a quarter for topping), and frozen mixed vegetables (if using) until well combined.
Spread the rice mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with ground black pepper, then lay them on top of the rice mixture.
Sprinkle the paprika evenly over the chicken breasts for added flavor and color.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to retain moisture while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
Carefully remove the foil, sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken and rice, and return the dish to the oven.
Bake uncovered for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy a cheesy, satisfying meal!
