Preheat your oven as the chicken tender package says. This is where you gotta get crispy chicken that won’t be soggy in the bowls.
Pop those frozen chicken tenders in the oven and bake ‘em until golden brown and crispy. Usually takes about 20-25 minutes but keep an eye on ‘em.
While that’s cookin’, get your bacon in a skillet over medium heat and cook it ‘til crispy. Once it’s done, take it out and crumble it up for later.
In a big bowl mix together the mashed potatoes with heated corn, green onions, and sour cream. Stir it all until it’s creamy and everything’s mixed up nice.
When the chicken tenders are done, take ‘em out of the oven and chop ‘em into bite-sized pieces. This way the bowls get a good mix of tender chicken in every spoonful.
Time to build your bowls. Layer the mashed potato mixture first, then top with the crispy chicken, bacon crumbles, and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese. Serve right away and watch everyone dig in happy.
Notes
Serve the bowls right away to maintain the cheese melty and bacon crispy.
