Preheat oven to 350℉.
Bring 2 cups water to boil in a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Add the broccoli and cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain well and wipe the skillet dry.
In a large bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and Sriracha. Stir in the cooked broccoli, chicken, cooked rice, and 1 cup of the cheddar cheese.
Spoon mixture into the skillet and loosely cover with foil. Bake for about 25 minutes until bubbly.
Toss the toasted breadcrumbs with the melted butter and sprinkle on top of the casserole, along with the Parmesan, and remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese.
Place back in the oven, uncovered, for another 5-10 minutes until the cheeses are melted.
