Lemon Chicken Potato Casserole Recipe

You will need…

1 can of each condensed cream and mushroom
1/2 cup milk we use skim (pictured whole)
1.5 lbs. Yukon gold potatoes thinly sliced (1/4 in thick)
2 cloves garlic, minced or 2 tsp of jarred minced garlic
1 small white onion, peeled and thinly sliced
1.5 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts {we like them long and thinly sliced}
Salt and freshly-ground black pepper to taste {we used it in the mix and a little on top}
1 lemon, thinly sliced and halved
2 Tablespoons of capers

To prepare…

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Add condensed soup and milk to a saucepan and whisk to combine. Heat over medium-high heat until simmering, stirring frequently. When it reaches a simmer, remove from heat and set aside.

In a separate mixing bowl, add potatoes, onion, garlic, and chicken. Pour in the condensed soup mixture, along with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, and gently toss to combine until the potato and chicken mixture is evenly coated.

Now pour the mixture into a 9 x 13 baking dish. Layer lemon slices into the mixture randomly. I also squeeze a wee bit of lemon juice on top. Sprinkle top of mixture with Capers. Then cover the top of the pan with aluminum foil.

Bake for 1 hour or until the potatoes are tender. Carefully remove the foil, and change oven to the high “broil” setting. Broil the casserole for an extra 2-3 minutes to crisp up the top, watching very carefully so that
it does not burn.

Remove pan from oven and serve warm.
