How To Make cheesy chicken and broccoli tater tot casserole

    Step 1
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Mist cooking spray on a 3-quart casserole dish or a 13 x 9” baking dish. Gather your ingredients.
  • Step 2
    Chop or shred cooked chicken or turkey. I use about half of a big rotisserie chicken. If you use ground meat, like hamburger, brown and drain the grease before using.
  • Stir together
    Step 3
    In a large bowl, stir together the soup, sour cream, milk, and seasonings. Add the chicken and about 3/4 of the shredded cheese.
  • Add frozen vegetables

    Add the frozen vegetables and mix well.
  • Step 5
    Turn the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.

    Step 6
    Top with the tater tots in a single layer, as much as possible.
