Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 30 ounces Frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 10.5 ounces Cream of chicken soup
- 1.5 cups Sour cream
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups Onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 cups Crushed cornflakes or breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Melted butter (for topping, optional)
Instructions
Spray the inside of a crockpot (4-6 quart capacity) with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease it with butter to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, finely chopped onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until evenly mixed.
Fold in the frozen shredded hash brown potatoes and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the creamy mixture.
Pour the potato mixture into the prepared crockpot and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
If using the optional topping, mix the crushed cornflakes or breadcrumbs with the melted butter and sprinkle it over the top of the potato mixture.
Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low heat for 4 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the dish is bubbling hot.
Once cooked, give the dish a gentle stir, taste, and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm straight from the crockpot. Garnish with chopped parsley or a sprinkle of extra shredded cheese, if desired.
