Step 4: Assemble the Casserole
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Spread half of the cooked potatoes across the bottom.
- Layer half of the cooked chicken on top.
- Pour half of the creamy sauce evenly over the layers.
- Sprinkle with half of each cheese.
- Repeat the layers again — potatoes, chicken, sauce, and cheese.
- Top with a final handful of cheddar for that perfect golden crust.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake another 10–15 minutes until the top is bubbly and golden brown.
- Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving — it’ll be irresistibly creamy and melty!
🌿 Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Sprinkle with chopped green onions, parsley, or crispy bacon bits for a pop of flavor and color.
Serve hot — ideally with a crisp salad or garlic bread on the side (if you can still move after this meal!).
