How to Make Stove Top Scalloped Potatoes
- Peel and thinly slice 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes.
- In a large, oven-safe skillet (cast iron is ideal!), combine the sliced potatoes with 1/2 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced.
- Pour in 2 cups whole milk (or heavy cream for extra richness), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 30-40 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/2 cup bread crumbs evenly over the potatoes.
- Continue cooking uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the topping is golden brown. If cooking over a campfire or open flame, adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
