Ingredients

1 lb chicken breasts or thighs ½" pieces
4 cups potatoes chopped in ½" chunks
4 cups broccoli florets bite size
2 cups sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise
1 cup green onions finely sliced
1 teaspoon each; dried parsley, dill, garlic powder and onion powder or equivalent ranch dressing mix
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
¾ cup *optional: bacon bits

Instructions

Heat the oven to 375° and lightly grease a 9" x 13" casserole dish with margarine, vegetable oil, or parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl combine sour cream, mayonnaise, green onions, dried herbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, ground black pepper and 1 ½ cups of the shredded cheddar cheese. Add in bacon bits if using, reserving a few for garnish at the end. Stir until combined.
Add chicken, chopped potatoes, and broccoli florets and stir again, then pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the remaining 1 ½ cups of shredded cheese on top.
Place the dish into the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, until the top is browned and bubbling and the chicken is cooked through.
Remove from oven and let it rest for 10 minutes to let it set, then serve while warm garnished with extra chopped green onion or bacon bits if you like.

Notes

Make ahead: This is easy to make ahead and reheat when you're ready to enjoy. Make as directed but cover with foil during baking. Remove foil, cool. recover with foil and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. When ready to reheat, preheat oven to 375'F and bake 30 minutes or until heated through and the cheese is bubbly and browned.
