Ingredients

  • 2 pounds russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 2 cups diced cooked chicken breast (halal/non-pork alternative to ham)
  • 1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter or cooking spray

Instructions

  • Lightly grease the inside of a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker with butter or cooking spray.
  • Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin rounds, about 1/8-1/4 inch thick.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of mushroom soup, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
  • Layer about half of the sliced potatoes evenly in the bottom of the slow cooker.
  • Scatter half of the diced chicken breast over the potatoes.
  • Repeat with the remaining potatoes and then the remaining chicken.
  • Slowly pour the cream of mushroom mixture evenly over the top of the layered potatoes and chicken.
  • Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours until the potatoes are very tender.
  • Let the dish sit covered for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Serve hot straight from the slow cooker.

Notes

Halal alternative to traditional ham: Use smoked turkey or lamb for a different flavor.
Ensure potatoes are sliced evenly for consistent cooking.
Let the dish rest before serving to allow the cream mixture to set slightly.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
