Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Coarsely grate the cooked potatoes into a baking dish and season with salt and pepper to taste. To keep them from darkening, you can drizzle them with lemon juice.
In a bowl, combine the pieces of cooked chicken with the sour cream, melted butter, and diced onion.
Spread the mixture over the potatoes and sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.
Place the casserole in an oven preheated to 175°C (350°F) and bake for 45 minutes.

Tip: Do not press the shredded potatoes down in the dish—leaving them loosely layered keeps them fluffy and allows the cream mixture to seep between them more easily during baking.
