Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 garlic clove, halved
Olive oil for brushing plus 4 tablespoons, divided
2 cups chopped onions
Coarse kosher salt
2 1/4 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, very thinly sliced
8 tablespoons (packed) grated Pecorino Romano cheese, divided
3 tablespoons drained capers
2 cups low-salt chicken broth

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Rub 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish with cut side of garlic clove. Brush dish with olive oil. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, sprinkle with coarse salt, and sauté until soft and beginning to brown, stirring frequently, about 13 minutes.
  • Arrange 1/3 of potatoes in even layer in prepared dish. Sprinkle with coarse salt and pepper. Scatter half of onions over. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons Pecorino Romano and 1 tablespoon capers. Repeat layering with half of remaining potatoes, coarse salt and pepper, remaining onions, 2 tablespoons Pecorino Romano, and 1 tablespoon capers. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Arrange remaining potato slices over. Sprinkle with coarse salt and pepper and remaining 1 tablespoon capers. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Pour chicken broth over. Press down firmly on potatoes to compact gratin.
  • Cover gratin tightly with foil and bake until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour 20 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle with remaining 4 tablespoons Pecorino Romano. Bake gratin uncovered until cheese is lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Let gratin stand 10 minutes at room temperature before serving.

I found this dish to be bland and uninspired. The potatoes were undercooked and the cheese sauce was thin and watery. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This gratin was a little too rich for my taste, but it was still good. The potatoes were cooked well and the cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful. I think I would use less cheese next time.

I wasn't sure how this dish would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised! The potatoes were cooked perfectly and the cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful. I loved the addition of the ham and peas.

This dish was easy to make and so delicious! I used Yukon Gold potatoes and they cooked perfectly. The cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful and the breadcrumb topping added a nice crunch.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. The cheese was melted and bubbly and the sauce was creamy and flavorful.

This Sicilian-style potato gratin was a hit with my family! The potatoes were perfectly cooked and the cheese was melted and gooey. I loved the addition of the rosemary and garlic, which gave the dish a delicious flavor.
