Jalapeños popper chicken casserole

[JLeonard]

Ran across some threads for this and had to give it a swing. Did an overnighter last night on my side gig. So I prepped it up yesterday before napping for work…

grocery store rotisserie chicken pulled off the bone and shredded. into the pan with a layer of cream cheese diced jalapeños (from a jar), a heavy sprinkle of Malcom’s honey rub, shredded cheddar, and crispy crumbled bacon.
for a side I wanted to try mashed potato baked cups. Mashed potatoes, made a divot in each cup filled with shredded cheddar and topped with bacon.

potatoes didn’t come out of the cup like the recipe on the ‘net. Was supposed to be like a muffin. Ended up just being like baked mashed taters….Maybe DRKsmoking can show me what I did wrong… He is the tater king!
plated up with some canned beans and corn. And of course a roll… gotta have some bread.

nice heat tempered by the cream cheese. I’ll do it again.
Thanks for hanging through the my rambling.

Looks great Jim
I would have no problem pushing my granny out of the way for a plate of that, lol


Thanks for the plug as tater boy lol ( not worthy of king status yet )

The potato cups sound and look great , Not sure why not come loose in the muffin cups. Not knowing how you really did them, Maybe potatoes too moist as you want them to crisp a little in the cups , and as long as you greased the pan a bit . Maybe just a little more heat to the bottom area

I love that stuff. Next time I make it I'm going to try using rotisserie chicken. I think it is I'll be moister than using breast.

Looks pretty darn tasty to me Jim. I love a good casserole and this one would make a good change of pace. Nicely done.

Point for sure

You could try those paper or foil baking cups.

You could try those paper or foil baking cups.

They just didnt get crispy like on the website recipe I was working off of. The bottom, sides and tops, were supposed to be crispy with a soft center. I'm gonna study the recipe and try it again. I will try the cups.

The bottom, sides and tops, were supposed to be crispy with a soft center

Also from what I mentioned above , little higher heat so the out side cooks quicker then the inside , maybe that way crispier outside
and still soft inside. Just a thought
