✅ 5 Tips for the Perfect Cheesy Chicken & Potato Casserole
1. 🔪 Slice Potatoes Evenly
➡️ Use a mandoline or sharp knife to make thin, uniform slices — this ensures all the potatoes cook evenly and stay tender.
2. 🧂 Season Each Layer
➡️ Lightly sprinkle salt, pepper, or seasoning between layers of potatoes and chicken for richer flavor in every bite.
3. 🧀 Use a Mix of Cheeses
➡️ Try combining cheddar with mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or Colby for a gooier, more flavorful casserole.
4. 🥣 Don’t Overfill the Slow Cooker
➡️ Leave at least 1 inch of space from the top so the mixture cooks evenly and the cheese doesn’t burn.
5. 🌿 Finish Fresh
➡️ Add chopped chives, parsley, or even crispy bacon bits right before serving — they add color, texture, and a flavor boost!
