Baked Potato Chicken and Broccoli Casserole 🥔


  • Author: Stacy FIECHTER

Description

A comforting casserole with creamy mashed potatoes, tender chicken, crispy bacon, and fresh broccoli, all topped with melted cheese for a satisfying meal.


Ingredients

• 3 pounds red potatoes (cut into 1-inch pieces)
• 4 tablespoons butter (room temperature)
• 1 cup sour cream
• ½ – 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• 1 medium-sized broccoli crown (about 2-3 cups bite-size florets)
• 3 cups cooked chicken (chopped)
• 4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled)
• 2 cups shredded cheese (divided)


Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-inch square baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
2️⃣ Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.
3️⃣ Steam or roast the broccoli until just barely softened, retaining some crispness. Drain any liquid. Cook and crumble the bacon.
4️⃣ Mash the potatoes in the warm pot. Stir in butter, sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic, and paprika.
5️⃣ Add the broccoli, chicken, bacon, and 1 cup of cheese. Stir well and transfer to the prepared baking dish.
6️⃣ Top with the remaining cheese and bake for 20-25 minutes, until cheese is melted and casserole is heated through. Enjoy!
