Ingredients
  

Potato Layer

  • 5 lbs Russet potatoes (sliced ¼" thick)

Sauce Mixture

  • 2 cups onions (chopped small)
  • 6 cloves garlic (minced)
  • ¼ cup butter (½ stick)
  • ¼ cup flour
  • 1.5 cups vegetable broth
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Slap Ya Mama® seasoning

Cheese Layer

  • 3 cups cheddar cheese (grated, divided) Divide into three portions for layering.
  • 1 cup pepper jack cheese (grated)
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a 14 x 11½ x 2¼ baking dish with a non-stick spray. Set aside.
  • Peel and thinly slice potatoes, approximately ¼" thick. Place in a large bowl until ready to use.
  • In a large frying pan, melt butter over low flame, then add onions and garlic. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle flour over onion mixture, stir, and cook for a couple of minutes.
  • Gently pour the vegetable broth into the pan and stir. Add salt, pepper, seasoning, and heavy cream. Stir until thickened, then remove from heat just prior to boiling.
  • Add 2 cups of cheddar cheese into the mixture, stirring until combined.

Assembly

  • Layer ⅓ of the potato slices in the baking dish, then add ⅓ of the sour cream and ⅓ of the cheese sauce over the potatoes.
  • Top with ⅓ of the Parmesan, ⅓ of pepper jack cheese, and ⅓ of cheddar cheese.
  • Repeat layering 2 more times, ending with cheddar cheese.

Cooking

  • Cover with foil and place in the oven. Cook for 1½ – 2 hours.
  • About 15 – 20 minutes prior to the potatoes being done, remove the foil to brown the cheese.
  • Remove from the oven, let sit for about 15 minutes, then enjoy.

Notes

Serve Cheesy Garlic Scalloped Potatoes warm. This dish pairs well with roasted meats or grilled chicken. Consider garnishing with fresh herbs like parsley or chives. For creaminess, add more heavy cream or cheese. Slice potatoes evenly for even cooking. Adjust seasonings to taste.
