Units Scale

For the Casserole:

  • 3 cups cooked and shredded chicken breast
  • 1 (32 oz) bag frozen shredded hash browns (thawed)
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup diced yellow onion
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the Topping:

  • 1 cup crushed buttery crackers or cornflakes (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Mix the ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese, melted butter, diced onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined. Fold in the shredded hash browns and cooked chicken until evenly coated.
  3. Prepare the casserole: Spread the mixture evenly into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Optionally, mix the crushed crackers or cornflakes with 2 tablespoons of melted butter and sprinkle over the top.
  4. Bake: Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the casserole is hot and bubbly. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese in the last 5 minutes of baking.
  5. Rest and serve: Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • This casserole is perfect for using leftover rotisserie chicken.
  • To prepare ahead, assemble the casserole and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before baking.
  • For a creamier texture, add a few tablespoons of milk to the mixture.
