Loaded Baked Potato & Chicken Casserole Directions
- Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and hot sauce.
- Peel and cube the potatoes, then add them to the bowl with the seasonings, tossing to coat evenly.
- Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray, then spread the potatoes evenly in the dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even cooking and a golden-brown finish.
- While the potatoes are baking, cube the chicken breasts. After 30 minutes, add the cubed chicken to any remaining seasoning mix and toss to coat.
- After the potatoes have cooked for 45 minutes, remove the dish and add the marinated chicken on top.
- In a separate bowl, combine the shredded cheese, crumbled turkey bacon, and diced green onions, mixing well.
- Sprinkle the cheese, bacon, and green onion mixture evenly over the chicken layer.
- Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked and the cheese is melted and bubbly (chicken should reach at least 165°F/74°C).
- Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
