Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided | 2 cups |
| Shredded Cooked Chicken | 3 cups |
| Ranch Seasoning Mix | 2 tablespoons |
| Cream of Chicken Soup | 2 cans |
| Cooked Bacon, crumbled | 1/4 cup |
| Sour Cream | 1 1/2 cups |
| Refrigerated Biscuits (12 oz) | 12 oz (1 can) |
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
- Combine Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, mix together the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, shredded cooked chicken, ranch seasoning mix, 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, and the crumbled cooked bacon.
- Prepare Biscuits: Slice the refrigerated biscuits into quarters.
- Combine Biscuits and Chicken Mixture: Carefully mix the biscuit pieces into the chicken mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Assemble Casserole: Spread the mixture into a well-greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
- Bake: Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the biscuits are cooked through and lightly golden brown.
- Serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
Tips for Best Results:
- Even Mixing: Ensure the biscuit pieces are evenly coated with the chicken mixture to prevent dry spots.
- Check for Doneness: Since oven temperatures may vary, check that the biscuits are fully cooked by inserting a knife into the center—if it comes out clean, it’s ready.
- Crispier Top: For an extra golden, crispy topping, broil the casserole for the last 2–3 minutes of baking.
Variations & Add-Ins:
- Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or diced jalapeños for some heat.
- Veggies: Stir in peas, corn, or chopped spinach for added nutrition.
- Different Cheese: Swap cheddar for mozzarella, pepper jack, or Colby for a unique twist.
- Buffalo-Style: Replace ranch seasoning with buffalo sauce for a spicy buffalo chicken version.
Serving Suggestions:
- Side Dishes: Serve with a fresh green salad, steamed broccoli, or roasted vegetables to balance the richness.
- Dipping Sauce: Pair with extra ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce for dipping.
- Garnishes: Sprinkle chopped parsley, green onions, or crispy fried onions on top before serving for extra flavor and texture.
Storage & Reheating:
- Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Freezing: Freeze in a tightly sealed container for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
- Reheating: Warm in the oven at 325°F until heated through, or microwave individual portions in 30-second intervals.
