Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • cooking spray

  • 1 (30 ounce) package frozen shredded hash browns, thawed

  • 2 ½ cups shredded Colby cheese, divided

  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup

  • 8 ounces sour cream

  • cup finely chopped onion

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 1 large egg, beaten

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • chopped parsley for garnish (Optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.

  2. Drain defrosted hash browns well. Combine drained hash browns, 2 cups Colby cheese, soup, sour cream, onion, butter, egg, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.

  3. Spoon the mixture into the casserole dish, and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese over the top.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and starts to brown, 45 to 55 minutes.

  5. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Cook’s Note

I use a salad spinner to drain water from thawed hash browns thoroughly; you want them as dry as possible to crisp up and avoid any sogginess.

You can substitute plain Greek yogurt for sour cream or use light sour cream.
