Using the water, milk and butter, prepare both boxes of Betty Crocker™ Loaded Casserole Potatoes according to package directions. Place in a large casserole or baking dish. Gently stir chicken into the potato mixture.
In a bowl, combine the 'topping' ingredients. Sprinkle over the top of the potato and chicken mixture.
