Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz frozen shredded hash browns
- 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
- 1.5 cups sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups butter
- 0.5 cups diced onion
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set it aside.
In a large bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, and diced onion. Mix until smooth and evenly blended.
Add the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the wet mixture and stir well.
Gently fold in the frozen hash browns and 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Ensure the hash browns are fully coated with the mixture but avoid overmixing.
Transfer the hash brown mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs with 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Top the casserole with the remaining 0.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50–55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
Allow the casserole to rest for about 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
