Method
Preheat the Oven:
- Set the oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking dish with butter.
Prepare the Ingredients:
- Thinly slice the potatoes and onion. Dice the chicken fillets and tomato. Chop the spring onions and halve the cherry tomatoes.

Layer the Casserole:
- Arrange a layer of sliced potatoes at the bottom of the greased baking dish.
- Add the sautéed chicken and onions, then spread the diced tomato on top.
Prepare the Sauce:
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth, cooking until the sauce thickens. Season with salt, black pepper, and dried parsley.
Assemble & Bake:
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with sour cream and pour over the layered ingredients.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese on top and pour the prepared sauce evenly over the casserole.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbling.
Garnish & Serve:

Notes
- Make it ahead: Assemble the casserole up to a day in advance and refrigerate before baking.
- Customize it: Add bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach for extra nutrition.
- Storage tips: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for best results.
- Cheese options: Try mozzarella, cheddar, or gouda for different flavors.
