Description

This hearty Chicken Hash Brown Casserole combines tender diced chicken breasts with crispy hash browns, creamy sour cream, melted butter, and sharp cheddar cheese. Baked to golden perfection with a flavorful chicken soup base and seasoned with onion, salt, and pepper, this comforting dish is perfect for family dinners or potlucks.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 30-ounce bag of frozen hash browns (thawed)
  • 2 raw chicken breasts (diced)
  • 1 packet chicken flavored soup mix (or 1 can cream of chicken soup)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup diced onion
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the casserole evenly.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, diced raw chicken, chicken flavored soup mix (or cream of chicken soup), sour cream, melted butter, shredded cheddar cheese, diced onion, salt, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly to distribute all ingredients evenly.
  3. Assemble Casserole: Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Spread the mixed casserole ingredients evenly in the dish, ensuring a uniform layer.
  4. Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 60 to 65 minutes. Bake until the chicken is fully cooked through and the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  5. Rest: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it stand for 5 minutes to set before serving, allowing the flavors to meld and making it easier to cut.

Notes

  • Make sure the chicken is diced into small pieces to ensure even cooking within the baking time.
  • Thaw hash browns completely before mixing to avoid excess moisture in the casserole.
  • You can substitute the chicken flavored soup mix with a can of condensed cream of chicken soup for convenience.
  • Add chopped bell peppers or mushrooms for extra veggies if desired.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure internal chicken temperature reaches 165°F for safety.
  • Let the casserole rest after baking to improve texture and ease of serving.
