Yield:
Serves 6

Ingredients

For the Casserole:

3 cups cooked diced or sliced potatoes
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
¾ cup BBQ sauce (your favorite brand)
½ cup sour cream
1 small red onion, finely diced
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt & pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley or green onion, for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Casserole Base:

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9×9 baking dish or similar casserole dish.
In a large bowl, mix together shredded chicken, BBQ sauce, sour cream, diced onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until creamy and well coated.
Fold in the cooked potatoes, gently stirring to cover each piece in the sauce.

Assemble & Bake:

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Top generously with shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake 20–25 minutes, or until bubbling around the edges and the cheese is melted and golden.
Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley or green onion for freshness.

Kitchen Tips

• Use rotisserie chicken for maximum flavor with minimal effort.
• Add sautéed bell peppers for extra color and sweetness.
• Swap cheddar for smoked gouda to create a bold, smoky twist.
• Double the recipe and bake in a 9×13 pan for a crowd.
