Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and place a rack in the center position. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch (or similar large) baking dish.
  • If the frozen hash browns are solid, thaw them until soft. Drain or gently squeeze out any excess liquid.
  • In a large bowl, combine the melted butter, salt, ground pepper, condensed cream of chicken soup, and sour cream. Stir until smooth and evenly combined.
  • Add the thawed hash browns, finely chopped yellow onion, and shredded Colby cheese to the bowl. Stir until the mixture is evenly distributed.
  • Dollop the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading only enough to distribute evenly but leaving a rough, uneven top so it can brown and crisp.
  • Bake uncovered at 350°F for 45 minutes, until the edges are bubbling.
  • Switch the oven to broil and broil 5–8 minutes, watching closely, until the top is browned and crispy. Remove from the oven and serve.
