Ingredients
  

2 cups mashed potatoes (prepared, either homemade or instant)

1 cup corn (canned or frozen, drained if canned)

2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (like rotisserie chicken)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup brown gravy (homemade or store-bought)

1 cup crispy fried onions (for topping)

2 tablespoons butter (optional, for richer mashed potatoes)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Mashed Potatoes: If using instant mashed potatoes, prepare them according to the package instructions, adding butter, salt, and pepper. If using homemade, ensure they are creamy and well seasoned.

      Layer the Ingredients: In a 9x13 inch baking dish, spread the mashed potatoes evenly across the bottom.

        Add Corn: Layer the corn evenly over the mashed potatoes.

          Shredded Chicken Layer: Next, evenly distribute the shredded chicken on top of the corn layer.

            Pour Gravy: Drizzle the brown gravy over the chicken layer, ensuring it's spread out evenly.

              Cheese Topping: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously over the gravy.

                Crispy Onions: Finally, sprinkle the crispy fried onions on top for an added crunch.

                  Bake the Casserole: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the top is slightly golden.

                    Serve & Garnish: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your hearty and comforting KFC Famous Bowl Casserole!
