How to Make Chicken and Potato Bake

Step 1 — Prepare the Ingredients

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-size cubes. Dice the potatoes into small, even pieces
so they cook at the same rate. Drain the green beans and set them aside.

Step 2 — Build the Casserole

In a large baking dish, arrange the ingredients in three neat rows:

  • Row 1: Potatoes
  • Row 2: Chicken pieces
  • Row 3: Green beans

This presentation gives the dish its classic “three-section” look.

Step 3 — Prepare the Butter Seasoning

In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with:

  • Ranch seasoning (optional but adds amazing flavor)
  • Garlic powder
  • Onion powder
  • Smoked paprika
  • Salt & pepper

Whisk until everything is fully combined.

Step 4 — Pour and Bake

Slowly drizzle the seasoned melted butter over all three rows. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.

Bake at 180°C / 350°F for 1 hour.

Remove the foil and bake for another 15–20 minutes to help the potatoes brown slightly.


🍽️ Serving Suggestions

Serve warm with:

  • Fresh salad
  • Warm dinner rolls
  • Steamed rice
  • Homemade gravy (optional)

Tips & Variations

  • Make it creamy — add ½ cup heavy cream to the butter mixture.
  • Make it spicy — add chili flakes or Cajun seasoning.
  • Use sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes for a healthy twist.
  • Add cheese — sprinkle shredded mozzarella or cheddar during the last 10 minutes of baking.

It’s easy to double the recipe and serve in a large aluminum tray for big parties.
