A cozy, cheesy comfort food casserole perfectly portioned for two, featuring a creamy potato base with a crispy, golden breadcrumb topping.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 ounces frozen shredded hashbrowns, thawed
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup
  • ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, finely sliced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the thawed shredded hashbrowns, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, melted butter, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir gently to mix evenly without breaking up the potatoes too much.
  3. Add in the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses and fold them into the potato mixture.
  4. Transfer the mixture to your greased oven-safe baking dish and spread it out evenly.
  5. In a small bowl, toss the panko breadcrumbs with a tablespoon of melted butter.
  6. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the potatoes.
  7. Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  9. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

If the top browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil halfway through baking. Let potatoes thaw fully before mixing to avoid watery casserole. Rotate dish halfway through baking for even browning. Rest casserole 5 minutes before serving for easier slicing.
