How To Make The Casserole


Start by adding the shredded chicken to a large mixing bowl. Then add the minced onion, salt, pepper, soup, and sour cream to the bowl. Add 3/4 cup of the cheese and mix well.


Next, pour the chicken mixture into the greased 9×13-inch baking dish and sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Line the top of the casserole with tater tots and bake at 350 degrees for about 60-70 minutes or until the tater tots are golden brown. Broil the tater tots for about five minutes at the end to get them nice and crispy.

Optional Ingredients
If you want to add extra ingredients to the dish to create a different flavor, here are a few ideas.
- Crumbled bacon and ranch seasoning.
- Peas, corn, green beans, or mixed vegetables.

Storage and Reheating Instructions
Store any leftovers in an airtight container or cover them with plastic wrap, and refrigerate them. To reheat, place some in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in one-minute increments until the casserole is heated throughout. I usually heat it up for two to three minutes.
