Loaded Potato and Chicken Casserole
Sounds great, potatoes and chicken, two of my favorites. And a casserole, hard to go wrong with a casserole.
Ingredients
- 1 kilo chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, cut into 1 inch cubes
- 8-10 medium potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- hot sauce, to taste
- 2 cups fiesta blend cheese, or a mix of Cheddar and Mozzarella would work
- 1 cup bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
- 1 cup spring onion, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 250 C. Grease a 9x13 baking dish with butter. In a large bowl mix together the olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and hot sauce to taste. Add the cubed potatoes and stir to coat. Carefully scoop the potatoes into the prepared baking dish, leaving behind as much of the olive oil mixture as possible. Bake the potatoes for 45-50 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes, until cooked through and crispy and browned on the outside.
- While the potatoes are cooking, add the cubed chicken to the bowl with the left over olive oil mixture and stir to coat. Once the potatoes are fully cooked, remove from the oven and lower the oven temperature to 200 C. Top the cooked potatoes with the raw marinated chicken.
- In a bowl ix together the cheese, bacon, and spring onion, and top the raw chicken with the cheese mixture. Return the casserole to the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the topping is bubbly. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes, serve.
Notes
For the chicken this is about 75 Baht, the cheese, taking a guess at about 180 Baht for 2 cups. For 8 servings, this is about 94 cents per serving.
