Peel half of a large onion and dice it.

In a skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter and add the diced onion.

Saute the onions until they are translucent and slightly golden brown.

Spray a 9 by 13 inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.

In a bowl, combine 20 ounces of shredded hash brown potatoes, the sautéed onions, 1 cup of sour cream, 1.5 cups of cheddar cheese (reserving some for the top), 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, and 2 teaspoons of garlic salt.

Add 1 cup of chicken broth to the mixture and mix until well combined.

Spread the mixture evenly in the greased 9 by 13 inch baking dish.

Top the mixture with the reserved cheddar cheese.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for 30 to 40 minutes until bubbling and cheese is melted.

If using fresh potatoes, peel and dice them, boil until fork tender, then follow the same steps for assembly and baking.
