Description
A comforting and creamy cheesy potato bake that is perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs Potatoes (peeled and thinly sliced (1/8″ thick))
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1/2 white onion (thinly sliced into half moons)
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 stalk green onions (diced for topping, optional)
Instructions
- Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add in the potatoes and onions. Cook for approximately 5-10 minutes stirring frequently until the potatoes are browning slightly.
- In a small bowl, combine the broth, heavy whipping cream, salt, and pepper. Add this mixture to the pan. Increase the heat and bring this mixture to a boil. Then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 13-15 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender.
- Uncover, top with the shredded cheese. Do not mix in as the potatoes may fall apart. Recover the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese has fully melted.
- Move the pan to the oven (if you are using an oven-safe pan) and broil uncovered for 2-3 minutes to slightly brown the top of the potatoes.
- Then let the potatoes sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken before serving.
- Serve topped with the green onions and enjoy!
Notes
- This dish can be served as a side or a main meal.
