SCALLOPED POTATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the onions begin to caramelize, about 20 minutes. Add the thyme and garlic and cook 1 minute.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the Swiss chard and blanch until tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and squeeze on towels to remove excess liquid.
• Spread a layer of potatoes in the bottom of the prepared dish, slightly overlapping the slices. Season with Essence, and top with a layer of the onions. Place a layer of Swiss chard on top, followed by more potatoes and onions. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Add the cream, top with cheese and cover with foil.
• Roast until nearly all the liquid has been absorbed, about 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until golden brown and bubbly, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
