I have a habit of boiling a whole chicken and then finding different recipes throughout the week to use the chicken. 

This is one such recipe. I viewed the cabinets/pantry and fridge and decided this was what I was going to make. 

Ingredients 

Approximately 1/2 lb of chicken (already cooked, you could use a can of chicken) 

Approximately 1 lb of red/new potatoes 

Half a container of sour cream 

Approximately a cup and a half of shredded cheddar cheese 

a splash of milk 

Salt and Pepper to taste. 

Instructions 

Pre-heat oven to 350

I pre-cooked my potatoes in my microwave using a special plastic pan from Pampered Chef. If you don't have such a pan you could also boil the potatoes until they are just almost done. 

Take an 8x8 baking dish and spray with cooking spray. Layer the potatoes on the bottom of the dish. 

In a small mixing bowl, add the chicken, sour cream, splash of milk, cheese, and seasoning of choice. Mix all the ingredients until the chicken is well coated and everything is mixed together. 

Pour the chicken mixture over the potatoes. Cover with tin foil and put in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Uncover after approximately 20 minutes and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes. You could add additional cheese at this point if you would like it. 

Serve with a garden salad and you have a wonderful well balanced meal. 

This was my first attempt at this particular creation and I think next time I'm going to try and add some onion and some green pepper as those are favorites in my house for flavor. I would say you could probably even use onion flakes at the seasoning stage of the recipe if you didn't have fresh onions to add. 

I hope you will all enjoy!
