Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced

2 cups frozen hashbrowns, thawed

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup sour cream

1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup green bell pepper, diced

1/4 cup green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Olive oil or cooking spray (for greasing)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the diced chicken, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

    Mix the Casserole Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hashbrowns, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, and diced green bell pepper. Stir until well incorporated.

      Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked chicken mixture into the hashbrown mixture. Stir gently until everything is evenly mixed. Be careful not to break down the hashbrowns too much.

        Prepare for Baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray. Pour the chicken and hashbrown mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it out evenly.

          Add Cheese Topping: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.

            Bake the Casserole: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is golden brown.

              Garnish and Serve: After removing the casserole from the oven, let it rest for about 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving. Enjoy your crispy and creamy Chicken Hashbrown Casserole!
