This creamy, comforting slow-cooked side tastes marvelous with almost any main dish and is a snap to assemble with frozen hash browns. It's a good way to make potatoes when your oven is busy with other dishes. —Lucinda Wolker, Somerset, Pennsylvania

1 package (2 pounds) frozen cubed hash brown potatoes
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
