Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz frozen shredded hash browns
- 2 cups diced cooked ham
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the frozen hash browns, diced ham, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until evenly distributed.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the hash brown mixture and stir to coat everything evenly.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion in one tablespoon of olive oil until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the sautéed onion to the hash brown mixture and stir well.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs and grated parmesan cheese. Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of olive oil and stir until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the hash brown casserole in an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy your cheesy ham hash browns casserole!
