Set the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

In a bowl, combine sour cream, milk, ranch dressing, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
4. Assemble the casserole
- In the baking dish, layer the potatoes, diced chicken, and half the crumbled bacon.
- Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the top.
- Sprinkle the cheddar (and mozzarella if using) over everything.
5. Bake

✅ Tips:
- For extra flavor, toss the chicken in Ranch Dressing before baking.
- You can also add Broccoli or Corn for a veggie boost.
This dish is creamy, comforting, and loaded with flavor—perfect for cozy dinners or meal prep.
If you want, I can also give a quick 15-minute version with pre-cooked chicken and microwave potatoes that’s just as delicious.
