This Crock Pot Chicken Tater Tot Casserole is a family favorite. Tater tots, cheese, chicken and bacon. A whole meal in one! A DELICIOUS SLOW COOKER MEAL! This cheesy chicken tater tot casserole is so good. I just don’t know how else to describe it. It is cheesy. It is bacon-y. And you got your chicken and taters all together so it is a whole meal in one. You just gotta try it and let me know what you think. In my house, this is a kid favorite!
Can I double this recipe? I don’t recommend it. If you need more, just make it in a second crock pot. Do I need to use raw chicken? You can use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken and cut the cooking time by a couple of hours. Any other seasoning I can use for the chicken? It’s important to season the chicken well with salt and pepper or any other seasoning you prefer, like cajun seasoning or blackened chicken seasoning.
