Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 1 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Peel and dice the Russet potatoes into 1-inch cubes, then rinse them thoroughly with cold water to remove excess starch. Pat dry.
Spray the crock pot's interior generously with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, melted butter, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.
Fold in the diced potatoes, crumbled cooked bacon, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until the potatoes are fully coated with the creamy mixture.
Transfer the potato mixture into the prepared crock pot, spreading it evenly.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 6 hours, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole. Cover and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Once cooking is complete, turn off the crock pot and let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes.
Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired, before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Deluxe Potato Casserole!
