How to Make Baked Cheddar Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 2 lbs small red potatoes (halved or quartered if large), 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup butter (melted), 1/4 cup milk, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Gently toss to coat all potatoes evenly.
- Pour potato mixture into a greased 9x13 inch glass baking dish.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until potatoes are tender and cheese is melted and bubbly. For extra crispy edges, broil for the last 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
- Optional: Sprinkle with 1/4 cup crumbled bacon before serving for added smoky flavor.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
