Lemon Caper Chicken Potato Casserole Recipe

• 1 can of each condensed cream and mushroom
• 1/2 cup milk we use skim (pictured whole)
• 1.5 lbs. Yukon gold potatoes thinly sliced ( 1/4 in thick)
• 2 cloves garlic, minced or 2 tsp of jarred minced garlic
• 1 small white onion, peeled and thinly sliced
• 1.5 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts- we like them long ad thinly sliced
• salt and freshly-ground black pepper in mix and a little on top
• 1 lemon, thinly sliced and halved
• 2 Tablespoons of Capers

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Add condensed soup and milk to a saucepan and whisk to combine. Heat over medium-high heat until simmering, stirring frequently. When it reaches a simmer, remove from heat and set aside.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, add potatoes, onion, garlic, and chicken. Pour in the condensed soup mixture, along with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, and gently toss to combine until the potato and chicken mixture is evenly coated.
4. Pour the mixture into a 9×13 baking dish. Layer lemon slices into the mixture randomly. I also squeeze a wee bit of lemon juice on top. Sprinkle top of mixture with Capers. Then cover the top of the pan with aluminum foil.
5. Bake for 1 hour or until the potatoes are tender. Carefully remove the foil, and change oven to the high “broil” setting. Broil the casserole for an extra 2 to 3 minutes to crisp up the top, watching very carefully so that it does not burn.
6. Remove pan from oven, serve warm and enjoy.
