# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Main Mixture

01 - 60 g green onions, sliced
02 - 1 teaspoon salt
03 - 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
04 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
05 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
06 - 60 g unsalted butter, melted
07 - 180 ml whole milk
08 - 240 g sour cream
09 - 200 g cheddar cheese, shredded
10 - 700 g cooked chicken breast, torn up
11 - 900 g frozen hashbrowns, shredded and thawed

→ Topping

12 - 15 g melted unsalted butter
13 - 80 g breadcrumbs

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Dish it out while it's still hot. Enjoy!
02 - Let the dish cool for about 5 minutes after baking. This will make it easier to cut and serve.
03 - Pop the dish into your oven, still hot, and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes. Take it out when the top's golden and everything's bubbling.
04 - Sprinkle your buttery breadcrumbs all over the top so it's nice and even.
05 - Mix breadcrumbs with the 15 g melted butter in a small bowl. Make sure the crumbs soak up all the butter.
06 - Scoop your mixture into a greased 33x23 cm dish and smooth it out.
07 - Gently toss in those chopped green onions at the end. Don't stir too hard.
08 - Shake in onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, and salt. Mix so they're spread everywhere.
09 - Pour in sour cream, milk, and your melted butter, giving everything a good stir until you don’t spot any streaks.
10 - Stir in the cheddar next until it’s all mixed through.
11 - Put thawed hashbrowns in a big bowl with your shredded chicken. Mix them together.
12 - Set your oven to 190°C and let it heat up.

# Extra Tips and Tricks:

01 - Switch to a bit of cream cheese instead of some sour cream, or just add 60 g more, if you want it creamier.
02 - Want some spice? Toss in cayenne or add a dash of your favorite hot sauce along with your other seasonings.
03 - Pick Panko or flavored breadcrumbs if you love a crunchier top.
04 - Cooked turkey or ground beef work great in place of chicken if you want to switch things up.
05 - Leftovers stay good for about three days in the fridge, just keep them airtight and heat them up again when you want more.
