Chicken And Cheesy Bacon Scalloped Potatoes Food

MAIN DISH CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES RECIPE WITH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9" square or 8 x 11" baking dish very well with cooking spray.
• In a medium bowl, stir together cheese, chopped green onions, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste.
• Arrange half the potato slices over the bottom of the baking dish and half the diced chicken over the potatoes. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper if desired. (I like a lot of salt on my potatoes.) Spread half the cheese mixture over the chicken and potatoes. Repeat these layers with the remaining ingredients.
• Spray a piece of aluminum foil with cooking spray, and cover the baking dish with the sprayed side down toward the food. Bake covered for 60 minutes.
• Remove foil, and increase heat to 400 degrees F. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until top is bubbly and starting to brown. Serve garnished with additional sliced green onions if desired.

CHEESY SCALLOPED POTATOES AND BACON

Steps:

• Cook bacon until done, but not crispy. Set aside on paper towels to absorb grease and pat dry. Cut into bite sized pieces when cool.
• Wash potatoes. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add salt to the boiling water, then add the potatoes. Cook for 10-15 minutes in boiling water (the potatoes will finish cooking in the oven). Set aside and allow to cool. Once you're able to work with the half-cooked potatoes, slice them into 1/2" pieces.
• In saucepan, melt butter. Saute the onion slices until just tender; remove from pan and set aside. Making sure you still have enough butter in your pan, stir in flour and milk, whisking until smooth. Cook over low heat, stirring/whisking constantly for 1 minute. Add cheese and continue to stir until cheese melts. Stir in 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Mix in bacon.
• In a buttered 9x13 quart casserole, layer potatoes, onion, and cheese mixture. Continue to add layers until about one inch from the top, finishing off the top layer with the cheese mixture.
• Bake in a preheated 350°F oven, covered, for 45 minutes. Take the cover off of the casserole dish, sprinkle with green onions, and bake for another 5 minutes uncovered. Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt before serving, if desired.

• In small sauce pan melt 2 tablespoons butter add 3 tablespoons flour. Stir constantly until mixture begins to bubble. Slowly add milk and stir constantly bringing sauce to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2-4 minutes until sauce is thickened.
• Drain potatoes. Spray or grease 2 qt casserole dish and add potatoes, sauteed onions/garlic, and pour sauce over potatoes. Salt and pepper to taste (you can tell by tasting the sauce). Mix well. Sprinkle bacon pieces and cheese crumbles then lightly hand mix throughout dish.
• Optional: you can sprinkle parmesan cheese on top and/or 1/4 cup bread crumbs mixed with 2 tbsp melted butter for a crispier topping.
• Bake at 400°F for 1 - 1 1/2 hours uncovered or until top is golden brown and potatoes are tender. Cover with foil for the first 45 - 60 minutes of the cooking time if you add the bread crumb mixture or else it will burn with this high temp/long cook time.
