Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups frozen hash browns
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium (finely chopped) onion
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1.5 cups (shredded) sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons (sliced, for garnish) green onions
Instructions
Place a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until soft and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour the frozen hash browns into the skillet and spread them evenly. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to lightly brown.
In a mixing bowl, combine cream of chicken soup, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese (reserve 1/2 cup for topping), milk, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until smooth.
Pour the creamy mixture over the hash browns in the skillet. Stir gently to coat the hash browns evenly.
Sprinkle the reserved shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and transfer the entire skillet into the oven.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and slightly golden.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Garnish with sliced green onions before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
