Ingredients:
1 (32 oz) bag frozen tater tots
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
1 jar (15 oz) Alfredo sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
(optional)
2 cups frozen peas or broccoli (optional)
1½ cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the casserole base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, Alfredo sauce, sour cream, garlic powder, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Mix until well combined.
Add veggies: If you’re using peas or broccoli, fold them into the chicken mixture until evenly distributed.
Assemble the casserole: Spread the chicken Alfredo mixture evenly in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Top with the frozen tater tots, arranging them in a single layer over the chicken mixture.
Add cheese: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the tater tots.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the tater tots are golden brown and crispy.
Garnish and serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
