Okay, here is my sharing about making a Chicken Bacon Ranch Casserole with Potatoes:
So, I tried making this Chicken Bacon Ranch Casserole with Potatoes thing the other day. It sounded pretty good, you know, chicken, bacon, potatoes – what’s not to like, right? I figured I’d give it a shot and see how it turned out.
First, I grabbed some chicken breasts and cut them up into these little bite-sized pieces. Then I tossed them into a hot pan with some oil and cooked them until they were all nice and browned. While the chicken was cooking, I got started on the potatoes. I peeled a few of those bad boys and diced them up into cubes, roughly the same size as the chicken. Oh, and I preheated the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Good thing I did that before.
Next up, the bacon. I fried up a bunch of bacon until it was crispy, then I let it cool off a bit and crumbled it up. Gotta have that crispy bacon! In a big bowl, I mixed the cooked chicken, potatoes, and bacon together. Then I added a whole bunch of shredded cheese – I used cheddar and Monterey Jack because that’s what I had. And of course, I dumped in a good amount of ranch dressing. Mixed it all up until everything was coated real good.
I greased up a casserole dish and poured the whole mixture into it. Spread it out evenly and then popped it into the oven. It needed to bake for about 25-30 minutes, just until it was all bubbly and the cheese was melted and slightly browned on top.
- Cook the chicken.
- Prepare and cut the potatoes.
- Fry and crumble the bacon.
- Mix everything together with cheese and ranch dressing.
- Bake it in the oven until it’s all bubbly and delicious.
Steps I Did
When it was done, I took it out of the oven and let it cool down for a few minutes before I tried it. I have to say, it was pretty darn good! The chicken was tender, the potatoes were soft, and the bacon added that awesome smoky flavor. And the cheese and ranch? Come on, that’s just a winning combo right there.
Honestly, it was a pretty easy recipe to follow, and the result was super tasty. It’s definitely something I’d make again, maybe for a potluck or just a chill dinner at home. If you’re into these kinds of flavors, you should totally give it a try. I am sure that you will love this just like me!
