Easy Scalloped Potatoes Recipe
Description
Easy Scalloped Potatoes combine 3 pounds of peeled, thinly sliced russet potatoes with a creamy mixture of ranch dressing, mayonnaise, whole milk, minced garlic, and shredded cheddar cheese. The potatoes are coated in this sauce and layered in a buttered casserole dish.
The dish is baked covered at 375°F for about 65 to 75 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. After uncovering, it bakes a few minutes longer and is broiled briefly to brown the cheese on top, creating a light crust with ample melted cheese beneath.
The final dish is allowed to rest before serving and is garnished with finely chopped chives for a fresh, mild onion flavor. The creamy sauce with ranch and mayonnaise imparts tanginess and richness, while garlic offers aromatic depth, making this a comforting side dish.
