    Chicken: The Ultimate Comfort Food

    What does comfort food mean to us? It means simple, authentic and delicious. There are no fancy ingredients here, no complicated French methods of cooking. We publish these recipes in the hope that you will already have most of these ingredients in your kitchen and you don’t even need to go to the store.

    And one of the most common ingredients you can find is Chicken. We’ve shared lots of Chicken Comfort Food Recipes on this site, from Bisquick Chicken Fingers to Crack Chicken Casserole, you can’t go wrong with this easy ingredient. We’ve made easy handhelds like Chicken Parmesan Sliders and rich, hearty classics like this Instant Pot Chicken and Cheese Pasta. For today’s recipe, we thought we’d pair this awesome ingredient with another comfort food staple: The Casserole. Introducing this Crispy Chicken Hashbrown Casserole!

    Crispy Chicken Hashbrown Casserole

    We love this Crispy Chicken Hashbrown Casserole because it is so easy to make, there will plenty for your whole family and the leftovers taste even better the next day for lunch! The casserole has such a great texture, with the tender gooey chicken, the hashbrowns and the crispy crust. There is just so much going on for such a simple recipe.

    Chicken Hashbrown Casserole Ingredients include cheddar cheese, rice krispies and butter.

    What Ingredients Will You Need for Chicken Hashbrown Casserole:

    • Frozen hash browns (keep frozen)
    • Chicken, cooked and cubed
    • Shredded cheddar cheese
    • Cheddar cheese soup (this is a cooking soup)
    • Cream of chicken soup
    • Sour cream or greek yogurt
    • Milk
    • Salt
    • Garlic powder
    • Onion powder
    • Pepper
    • Butter, divided
    • Rice krispie cereal

    Can You Make This Casserole Ahead Of Time Or Freeze It?

    Yep, you can make this the night before and it will be fine sitting in your fridge until you bake it the next day. This is also a great casserole to freeze. Simply let it cool, then cover it with tightly with aluminum foil. It should be good in your freezer for 2-3 months.

    The Best Chicken For This Hashbrown Casserole.

    You can cook your chicken any way you’d like for this dish. A lot of people like to cook theirs in a slow cooker and shred it. You can also roast a bone-in chicken and then remove it from the bone after cooking. Or you could bake it or even pan fry it. But we also love to get a Rotisserie Chicken from the store and use that. It makes it so easy! If you see them on sale, get several, remove the chicken from the bone and freeze it. It is perfect for casseroles!

    Can You Make This In A Crock Pot?

    Yes. You probably can. I haven’t tried it. You could mix all the ingredients as directed and add them to your Slow Cooker. Cook on low for 5-6 hours or high for 3-4 hours. The only problem with this is that the topping would not get crispy in your Crock Pot. And that is one of the best parts of this recipe! I’d stick to the oven!

    Notes, Tips and Variations:

    • Crispy Topping- We love the Rice Krispies Cereal on top of this, but feel free to try some other toppings. Panko Bread Crumbs, Regular Bread Crumbs, Potato Chips, Corn Flakes or Crushed Crackers would all be yummy!
    • Add Veggies- Try adding some frozen vegetables. Frozen peas, carrots or broccoli would be fun!
    • Add Some Spice- Add some Buffalo Sauce to this recipe to give it some kick.
    • Bake Uncovered- We bake this dish uncovered to get that top nice and crispy and bubbly. If your to looks like it’s burning a bit, you can cover with aluminum foil at the end of cooking if needed.
    • Cut The Calories- Make this a little lighter with some substitutions. Use Greek Non-Fat Yogurt instead of Sour Cream. Use only White Meat Chicken Breasts. Opt for Low-Fat Shredded Cheese. Sub the Cream of Chicken Soup for Low Fat Cream Cheese and 2 tsp of Chicken Bouillon Paste.
