  • Cooking Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, frozen hash browns, ranch dressing, sour cream, half of the cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top of the casserole.
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
  • Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional green onions if desired.
  • When preparing Loaded Potato Ranch Chicken Casserole, it's important to confirm that your ingredients are well-mixed to achieve a uniform flavor throughout the dish.
  • You can also experiment with different cheeses, such as Monterey Jack or pepper jack, for added spice. If you like a crunchier texture, consider adding crushed potato chips or French fried onions on top during the last 5 minutes of baking. Enjoy your delicious casserole!
