Instructions

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a baking dish with cooking spray.

Assembling the Dish

  1. Combine ingredients

    In the greased baking dish, combine diced chicken, cubed potatoes, ranch seasoning mix, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and minced garlic. Mix well to coat everything evenly.

  2. Bake

    Cover the dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

  3. Add more cheese

    Remove the foil, sprinkle additional shredded cheddar cheese on top, and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve and Enjoy

  1. Serve hot

    Remove from the oven, let it cool slightly, and serve hot. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or chives if desired.

Note

  • Ensure the chicken is cooked through by using a meat thermometer; it should reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Feel free to add extra veggies like broccoli or bell peppers for added color and nutrition.
  • For a crispier topping, broil the dish for a few minutes at the end of cooking.
  • Use low-sodium ranch seasoning mix if you want to control the salt content.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to maintain crispiness.
