Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 8-10 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 4 large Russet potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika

  2. Cook bacon until crispy, then crumble it into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Season chicken pieces with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  4. In a large bowl, combine cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and milk. Whisk until smooth.
