Categories     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

5-6 cups mashed potatoes (my homemade version is portioned for this recipe)
1 cup corn
1 cup cheddar cheese (freshly grated)
8 Chicken Tenders (I prefer my homemade recipe but frozen may be used)
Brown Gravy (you can also use a packet)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If using frozen chicken tenders, let them sit at room temp for about 5 minutes if you prefer to slice them first, this allows them to soften.
  • Spread the potatoes on the bottom of a 9 x 13 casserole dish.
  • Note: If your mashed potatoes are cold, warm them first.
  • Top with corn and cheese.
  • Carefully slice the chicken strips into pieces of desired size and top the casserole dish with them.
  • Bake uncovered for 20 minutes if using frozen chicken tenders and 15 minutes for homemade.
  • Prepare the gravy on the stove top while the casserole finishes baking.
  • Drizzle desired amount of gravy over the casserole dish and serve!
