Oh my goodness, you guys. Can we please talk tater tot casserole today? This dish takes me straight back to my childhood. You can find my recipe for traditional Tater Tot Casserole and Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole on the blog as well!
How to Make Chicken Tater Tot Casserole:
Typically I have a batch of my All Purpose Slow Cooker Shredded Chicken on hand as well, sometimes I don’t want to go to the store and pick up a chicken after a busy day!
- Start with preheating your oven and lightly greasing a 9×13 inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Next, use a large bowl and mix together your shredded chicken with the soups, sour cream, powdered ranch mix, and additional seasonings.
- Spread the chicken mixture in the pan that you have prepared and top evenly with the tater tots.
- Then, the casserole will bake for about 35-45 minutes. The dish will be hot and bubbly and the tater tots will be golden brown when finished.
Enjoy!

I didn’t notice a bake temp. Do I go by tater tots recommended temp?
Family LOVED it! I didn’t have cream of cheddar so I used 2 cans of cream of chicken – I also had a bag of bacon pieces in my fridge and added those into it.
Will make this again!
Just made this with only a couple of changes. Used 2 cans of cream of chicken and no cheese soup and threw in a cup of frozen mixed veggies too! Helps not having to make a separate vegetable on the side.!
Great idea
This was sooooo good! The only change I made was to add crystals hot sauce.
