Creamy Chicken and Potatoes

 After making this one there are a few small changes I would make. It was good, but could be great! (That's what happens when you make up your own recipes, haha; you never know how they will turn out!)


Ingredients:

Chicken Breasts

Shake N Bake (or smashed Ritz crackers work well.)

Egg, for the shake n bake.

Potatoes, diced

Broccoli

Shredded Mozzarella

Butter

Cream Cheese, softened

Ricotta Cheese, softened

1 Packet of Garlic Parmesan Seasoning 

My edit would be adding some Heavy Cream

Minced Dried Onions


Directions: 

Coat Chicken with Shake n Bake , and pan fry for a few minutes on each side.

Layer bottom of 9 x 13 pan with diced potatoes and broccoli. Throw a few pats of butter in there. 

In a separate bowl, mix together ricotta, cream cheese and the seasoning packet.  This is where I would stir in some heavy cream, to make it closer to a liquid than a solid, lol. 

Sprinkle some mozzarella over the potatoes, then lay chicken breasts on top.

Spread/pour cheese mixture over chicken, with the rest over the potatoes. 

I sprinkled the extra shake n bake on top for a little crunch. 

Bake for 45- 60 minutes at 350*.  (Covered for the first 30 minutes.)
