A comforting casserole featuring layers of browned ground beef and thinly sliced potatoes, baked to a crispy finish.

  • Total Time: 60 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4-5 medium potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ cup beef broth or water

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned (5-7 minutes). Drain excess fat.
  3. Stir in chopped onion and minced garlic; cook until soft (3-4 minutes).
  4. Spread the beef mixture in the baking dish. Layer thinly sliced potatoes on top, season with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and paprika.
  5. Sprinkle cheeses over potatoes and pour beef broth around the edges.
  6. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes; then uncover and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until potatoes are tender.

Notes

For even cooking, aim for uniformly thin potato slices; a mandoline makes this effortless. Cool slightly before covering to avoid sogginess.
