Smoke-Chipotle Scalloped Potatoes

Here’s my new twist on an classic recipe:

scallopedpotatoes

If you love cheese like me.. this cheese caught my eye.  So I decided to give it a try..

I’m so glad I did.. It’s a smokey flavored cheese with a bit of a subtle kick to it..

Recipe:

6 russet potatoes peeled and sliced

1/4 cup chopped onion (I used a Vidalia onion because I love the sweetness of it)

2 lrg cloves of garlic – minced

1 pint of heavy cream

1 tblspn  butter

1/2 tspn sea salt

1/2 tspn pepper

7 oz of chipotle cheese (grated)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease a 9 x 11 baking dish with butter.  In a large dutch oven, melt butter and add onions.  Cook until onions are tender (stirring around in the pan).  Add heavy cream and bring to a slight boil.  Once it begins to boil turn down to simmer.  Add potatoes, garlic, sea salt and pepper.  Increase heat and bring mixture to a bubble and let cook approximately 15 mins.   Transfer half to the baking dish and sprinkle with cheese (I also gave a light sprinkle of pepper as well).  Pour remaining potatoes and top with cheese.  Bake covered until cheese is melted – approximately 15 mins.

 

The potatoes have creamy texture with hint of garlic and smokey-chipotle flavor

  1. You just brought me back to my childhood girl. I haven’t had scalloped potatoes since my mom was in town. I just love hers but for some reason never asked her the recipe. I need to find out her recipes lol. But in the meantime, I’m going to try your recipe out. This looks amazing.
