Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4-5 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/4 cup milk (optional)
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Brown the ground beef in a large skillet with oil, breaking it up until no pink remains; drain excess fat if needed.
- Stir in chopped onion and minced garlic and cook until the onion is softened.
- Spread the seasoned beef evenly in the dish.
- Arrange thin potato slices in overlapping layers on top.
- Season the potatoes with pepper, dried Italian seasoning, and paprika.
- Scatter shredded cheddar and grated Parmesan over the potatoes.
- Pour beef broth around the edges so it seeps under the potatoes; drizzle milk over the top if using.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
- Remove foil and bake for another 15–20 minutes until potatoes are tender and cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Let rest for a few minutes, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve.
Notes
Slice potatoes uniformly for even cooking. Brown beef in batches if the pan is crowded for better flavor.
