The Loaded Chicken Potato Bake Recipe is a warm and hearty dish. It’s full of flavor, comfort, and cheesy goodness.
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes diced
- 2 chicken breasts cut into cubes
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices of bacon cooked and crumbled
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup green onions chopped
- 1/2 cup sour cream for topping
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat while you prepare the ingredients.
Prepare the Potatoes
- Cut the potatoes into small cubes. Toss them in olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Bake the Potatoes
- Spread the potatoes on a baking dish and bake for 20 minutes until they start to get golden.
Add the Chicken
- Take out the dish and add the cubed chicken on top of the potatoes. Mix gently to combine.
Bake Again
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for another 20 minutes. This helps the chicken cook through and stay tender.
Add Cheese and Bacon
- Remove the foil. Sprinkle cheddar cheese and bacon bits over the top. Bake for 5–10 more minutes until cheese melts perfectly.
Garnish and Serve
- Once done, take it out and top with chopped green onions and a dollop of sour cream. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Cut the potatoes and chicken into small, even pieces for fast cooking.
- You can use cooked rotisserie chicken for an even quicker meal.
- Add extra cheese for more gooey flavor.
- Try adding broccoli or bell peppers for extra color and taste.
- Always serve it hot for the best texture and flavor.
