Buffalo Chicken and Roasted Potato Casserole image

This recipe was passed to me by a friend whose husband loved Buffalo wings and baked potatoes. I made it for the first time for my crew of boys and it was a big hit. Being a single working mom and short on time, I made some shortcuts to the recipe and to my surprise, it tasted even better.

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

cooking spray
6 tablespoons hot pepper sauce
⅓ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon paprika
1 ½ teaspoons salt
8 potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend (such as Great Value Fiesta Blend®)
1 cup crumbled cooked bacon
1 cup diced green onions

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

  • Reduce oven heat to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
  • Spread chicken cubes over roasted potatoes. Sprinkle Mexican cheese blend, cooked bacon, and green onions over chicken. Return to oven and bake until chicken is cooked through and the cheese topping is bubbling, about 15 minutes.
