Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 4 cups peeled and diced potatoes (about 4 medium potatoes)

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup sour cream

  • ½ cup milk

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp salt

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • Optional: chopped green onions or fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the onions and garlic until fragrant, about 2–3 minutes.

  3. Add the diced chicken to the skillet and cook until lightly browned on the outside (it doesn’t need to be fully cooked through).

  4. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, cooked chicken, sautéed onion and garlic, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well mixed.

  5. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.

  6. Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes.

  7. Remove foil, sprinkle cheese over the top, and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the potatoes are fork-tender.

  8. Garnish with green onions or parsley if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

  • You can substitute cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom or cream of celery.

  • Add cooked bacon or steamed broccoli for extra flavor and nutrition.

 

  • Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 3 days.
