Ingredients

Casserole

  • 30 ounces frozen hash browns thawed
  • 3 cups cooked and shredded chicken
  • 1 10.5-ounce can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 10.5-ounce can cream of mushroom soup
  • 2 cups shredded Colby Jack cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Topping

  • 3 cups cornflakes crushed
  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set it aside. 
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, shredded cooked chicken, cream of  chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, shredded cheese, sour cream, milk, garlic salt, onion  powder, and pepper.
  • Mix until well combined. 
  • Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared casserole dish. 
  • In a separate bowl, mix the crushed cornflakes and melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the top  of the casserole. 
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly and the topping is golden brown.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. 

Notes

  • Butter or use nonstick cooking spray to prepare the casserole dish.
  • If you don’t have garlic salt, combine 1 part garlic powder with 3 parts salt.
  • Be sure to thaw and drain the frozen hash browns so the dish isn't soggy.
  • Use leftover chicken breasts or a rotisserie chicken for easier prep on busy nights.
  • Substitute the cornflakes for crushed Ritz crackers.
  • Leave out the spices and use a packet of ranch dressing mix instead.
  • If the top browns too quickly, cover lightly with aluminum foil for the rest of the baking time.
