Stir in cooked rice, Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add a splash of coconut aminos or soy sauce if desired for savory depth.
Transfer the mixture to a lightly oiled baking dish and spread evenly.
Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, until hot and slightly crisp around the edges. Let rest a few minutes before serving.
