My favorite recipe for garlicky, cheesy, perfect scalloped potatoes — lightened up a tad with milk instead of heavy cream.

INGREDIENTS:

3 tablespoons butter

1 small white or yellow onion, peeled and thinly sliced

4 large garlic cloves, minced

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup chicken stock or vegetable stock

2 cups milk (I recommend 2% or whole milk)

1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves, divided

4 pounds Yukon Gold Potatoes, sliced into 1/8-inch rounds

2 cups freshly-grated sharp cheddar cheese*, divided (feel free to add more cheese if you’d like)

1/2 cup freshly-grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for serving

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 400°F.  Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.

Melt butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat.  Add onion, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent.  Add garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.  Stir in the flour until it is evenly combined, and cook for 1 more minute.  Gradually pour in the stock, and whisk until combined.  Add in the milk, salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon thyme, and whisk until combined.  Continue cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce just barely begins to simmer around the edges of the pan (avoid letting it come to a boil) and thickens.  Then remove from heat and set aside.
