• 1 cup Sour cream
• 10.5 ounces Cream of chicken soup
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes or until softened. Remove from heat.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed onion, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until smooth.

Step 4

Add the shredded hash browns and 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese to the bowl. Stir everything together until the hash browns are evenly coated with the creamy mixture.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 6

Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

Step 7

If desired, sprinkle breadcrumbs or crushed cornflakes over the cheese for added texture and crunch.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown and bubbling around the edges.
