It’s a pizza… it’s potatoes… it’s… it’s… Chicken Potato Pizza Bake! I was playing around this weekend trying to use up a few old potatoes, half a bag of shredded mozzarella, and an older pack of boneless chicken thighs from the freezer — and this combination turned into such a lovely all-in-one comfort food casserole that I just had to tell you guys about it.

Move the chicken and potato mixture to the prepared baking dish. Bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes or until potatoes are fairly tender, stirring halfway through.

Remove the baking dish from the oven and stir. Top everything with shredded mozzarella and Parmesan, then arrange pepperoni and green onions evenly across the top.
