Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups (shredded or diced) Cooked chicken breast
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) Cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1.5 cups (thawed) Frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 cups (crushed) Potato chips (plain)
- 2 tablespoons (melted) Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded or diced cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, thawed mixed vegetables, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until fully combined.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
In a separate bowl, mix the crushed potato chips with the melted butter until well coated.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken mixture, then evenly distribute the buttered potato chips on top.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until it is bubbling around the edges and the potato chip topping is golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Retro Chicken Chips Casserole!
