Time 1h32m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons butter, melted
¼ cup all-purpose flour
4 cups milk
2 cups shredded Italian cheese blend, divided
1 onion, minced
3 tablespoons smoked paprika
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
8 russet potatoes - peeled, quartered, and sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add flour; cook and stir until foamy, about 2 minutes. Let cool. Whisk in milk over medium heat until smooth. Stir in 1 1/2 cup Italian cheese blend, onion, and paprika until melted and smooth. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until flavors combine, about 5 minutes.
  • Divide potatoes between two 8x12-inch cake pans. Pour 1/2 of sauce over each pan; stir to coat.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and hot, about 1 hour. Top pans with remaining 1/2 cup cheese; bake for an additional 5 minutes.

This dish was a bit too smoky for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less smoked paprika.
