Father's Day Potatoes image

Ed asked for a side dish of scalloped potatoes for his Father's Day dinner with grilled strip steaks on the Big Green Egg. I wanted something new and different. Voila! The perfect accompaniment to grilled steak! Serve with a green salad and steamed asparagus and you've got a meal fit for the queen or the neighbors or all the Dads you know on Father's Day. I used a very nice Camenbert but you could use brie.

Time 45m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 large red potatoes, cubed
2 tablespoons olive oil
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
1 red onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup camembert cheese
1/8 cup parsley, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat a cast iron skillet and add the olive oil.
  • Season the potato cubes with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Saute the potatoes in the hot olive oil, stirring until the potatoes start to brown.
  • Add garlic, onion, and rosemary and add a ladel of chicken broth and stir.
  • Over medium-high heat continue to stir and add ladels of chicken broth as the potatoes absorb the liquid -- very much like risotto, a little at a time.
  • The potatoes will reach an al dente state, keep testing because you don't want mashed potatoes.
  • Remove from the heat and add the cream, stirring until all mixed well and looks real creamy.
  • Taste and reseason with more salt and pepper as needed.
  • Then drop in the cheese and mix.
  • Pop into the oven for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is all melty and bubbling.
  • Accent with either minced parsley or chives and serve.
