Instructions to Make a KFC Bowl Casserole
Step 1: Prepare the Mashed Potatoes
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- If using store-bought mashed potatoes, heat them up slightly in a saucepan or microwave for easier spreading.
- For homemade mashed potatoes, peel and boil 4-5 large potatoes until tender. Drain, then mash with butter, salt, pepper, and garlic powder for a creamy texture.
Step 2: Assemble the Base of the Casserole
- Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish lightly with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Spread the warm mashed potatoes evenly in the bottom of the casserole dish to create the base layer.
Step 3: Add the Corn and Popcorn Chicken
- Spread the thawed corn evenly over the mashed potatoes.
- Layer the cooked popcorn chicken on top of the corn. Arrange it evenly for consistent bites in each serving.
Step 4: Drizzle with Gravy
- Pour the warm brown gravy over the popcorn chicken layer. Use enough to coat the top without making the casserole too liquidy. This will add richness and flavor as it bakes.
- Feel free to add a pinch of paprika on top of the gravy for an extra burst of flavor and color.
Step 5: Top with Cheese
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the gravy layer, spreading it evenly to ensure each bite gets a cheesy pull.
- If desired, mix in some shredded mozzarella for added gooeyness.
Step 6: Bake the Casserole
- Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- For a slightly crispy top, broil the casserole for an additional 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning the cheese.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
- Let the casserole sit for about 5 minutes to cool slightly before serving. This will help the layers set for easier serving.
- Serve hot, scooping generous portions to enjoy every layer of the casserole.
