Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked chicken – shredded or cubed
  • 1 bag (30 oz) frozen hashbrowns – thawed
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup – condensed
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables – peas, carrots, or your choice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup crushed cornflakes or breadcrumbs – for topping
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter – for topping

Instructions:

  • Preheat Your Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter to prevent sticking.
  • Prepare the Casserole Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, thawed hashbrowns, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, mayonnaise, chopped onions, shredded cheddar cheese, and mixed vegetables. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated.
  • Assemble the Casserole: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula to ensure even cooking.

  • Add the Topping: In a small bowl, mix the crushed cornflakes or breadcrumbs with melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the top of the casserole to create a crispy, golden crust.
  • Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy, and the casserole is heated through. You should see bubbling around the edges.
  • Serve: Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added color and flavor. Serve hot and enjoy!
