Ingredients
Scale
- 3 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8-inch thick
- 1 pound smoked sausage, sliced
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 3 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk, warmed
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Slice and pat potatoes dry.
- Brown sausage slices in a skillet over medium heat, 2-3 minutes per side. Set aside.
- Melt butter in the skillet, whisk in flour, cook 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in warm milk. Add seasonings and simmer until thickened.
- Layer potatoes in the dish, add sausage, sprinkle cheese, and pour sauce. Repeat for 3 layers, topping with cheese.
- Cover with foil and bake 45 minutes. Uncover and bake another 15-20 minutes until golden and bubbly. Rest 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Slice potatoes uniformly and dry thoroughly. Warm milk prevents lumps in the sauce. Resting after baking helps set the layers.
