This mashed potato casserole with crispy chicken is the best dinner I’ve made this week. This is seriously easy and quick to make using just a couple of simple ingredients. A mouthwatering mashed potato casserole with corn, cheddar cheese, chicken strips, and drizzles of brown gravy. Bonus, you can make this in advance and bake it for later.
If you are looking for an easy and quick family dinner, this mashed potato casserole with crispy chicken is your best option. Leftovers are also great to serve for lunch the next day. Save them in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days. Before eating, reheat in the oven at 350 degrees or in the microwave. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
Ingredients
8 Chicken Tenders
5-6 c. mashed potatoes
1 c. corn
Brown Gravy, you can also use a packet
1 c. cheddar cheese, freshly grated
How to make Mashed Potato Casserole with Crispy Chicken
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 400 degrees F.
Step 2: Allow the frozen chicken tenders to sit for about 5 minutes at room temperature. Do this if you prefer to slice them first.
Step 3: On the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish, spread the potatoes. If using cold mashed potatoes, make sure to warm them first.
Step 4: On top of the potatoes, add the corn and cheese.
Step 5: Into your desired size, carefully slice the chicken strips. Place the chicken strips on top of the corn and cheese.
Step 6: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, uncovered (if using frozen chicken tenders). Or bake for about 15 minutes for homemade.
Step 7: In the meantime, prepare the gravy on the stovetop.
Step 8: Over the casserole, drizzle the gravy. Serve the Mashed Potato Casserole with Crispy Chicken immediately. Enjoy!
