Prepare the Chicken:
If you’re using frozen chicken tenders, cook according to the package directions. Alternatively, fry or bake fresh chicken tenders for a crispier result. Set them aside once cooked. -
Make the Mashed Potatoes:
For quick prep, use instant mashed potatoes. Just follow the package instructions. For homemade mashed potatoes, boil peeled potatoes until tender, then mash them with butter, milk, salt, and pepper. -
Heat the Corn:
Heat the corn in a microwave or on the stovetop until warm. -
Assemble the Bowl:
Layer the mashed potatoes at the bottom of a bowl. Top with chopped crispy chicken tenders, followed by a scoop of corn. Pour hot gravy over the ingredients, and then sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese. Microwave for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
Once the cheese is melted, your KFC Bowl is ready! Add any optional toppings like bacon bits or green onions for extra flavor.
