When I made this dish, it was requested that I make it again tomorrow night! We really liked this one and you can increase or decrease the hot sauce to suit the taste of the family. My husband and I added more at the dinner table while the children liked it just like it is. All around family hit though. You can increase the amount of potato to stretch this meal without having to add anything else. I used 8 potatoes and one small serving of leftovers.
Buffalo Chicken and Potato Casserole
Ingredients:
6 slices natural bacon, fried and crumbled
1/2 medium onion
1/3 cup olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
1 T paprika
2 T garlic powder
1/4 c to 1/2 cup or more of hot sauce
2 large boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
2 cups Sharp Cheddar cheese*Annies Organic Ranch dressing (or blue cheese)
The How To's:
Fry your bacon, drain and set aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Chop up your potatoes and onion and place in a large bowl. In a measuring cup, mix olive oil, hot sauce and seasonings together. Pour over the potatoes and toss to coat well.With a large slotted spoon, remove the potatoes to a 13x9 baking dish, allowing remaining marinade to drain back into the bowl. Spread the potatoes in the baking pan and place pan in the oven. Place the cubed raw chicken in the marinade and toss to coat well. Set aside. Allow the potatoes to cook until tender and starting to brown. Remove from the oven and pour the chicken over the potatoes. Sprinkle with the chopped bacon and cheese. Return to the oven and bake approximately 15 minutes until the chicken is done and cheese is bubbling.
Serve with ranch dressing and celery sticks. Serves 4.
*We use Annies because most ranch dressings contain MSG or some variation of it. If you research MSG you will find that it is not a chemical you want to knowingly feed your family. If you can't find an organic dressing, you could always make your own. That will also ensure that your dressing is gluten-free.
