Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz frozen shredded hash browns
- 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup butter
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.25 tsp paprika (optional, for garnish)
- 1 for greasing non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, shredded cheddar cheese, diced onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well incorporated.
Add the frozen shredded hash browns to the bowl and fold them gently into the mixture until all the hash browns are coated. Make sure not to overmix to avoid breaking the potatoes.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
If desired, sprinkle paprika on top for additional flavor and a pop of color.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy this delicious comfort food!
