EASY CHEESY SKILLET SCALLOPED POTATOES WITH MUSHROOMS



Easy Cheesy Skillet Scalloped Potatoes With Mushrooms image

Too hot to turn the oven on? You can still have delicious creamy potatoes with this savory recipe. Peeling is optional, and any kind of parmesan you have is fine. Note: Thanks to the reviewers who made this the second-place winner! I've noted the things you said, and made a few adjustments. Note: This is a stovetop recipe. I do not recommend making it in the oven. Although it can be done successfully, it takes about twice as long to cook using raw potatoes. Using cooked or partially cooked potatoes does not give the sauce a chance to thicken properly. The dish also has a serious tendency to scorch in the oven.

  • Slice the potatoes thinly and evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Use a good quality cheese: A sharp cheddar cheese is a classic choice for scalloped potatoes, but you can also use other types of cheese, such as Gruyère, Parmesan, or Fontina.
  • Add some aromatics: Onion, garlic, and thyme are all great additions to scalloped potatoes. They add flavor and depth to the dish.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: Scalloped potatoes should be tender, but they should still have a little bit of bite to them. Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and bland.
