This hearty, flavorful dish is perfect for family dinners or special occasions, combining creamy, cheesy potatoes with succulent, garlic-infused beef chops.
Ingredients:
For the Cheesy Potatoes:
6 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1 ½ cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
For the Garlic Beef Chops:
4 beef chops (bone-in or boneless, about 1 inch thick)
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Instructions:
Prepare the Cheesy Potatoes:
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Make the Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in heavy cream, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Heat until warm, but do not boil.
Layer Potatoes: Arrange the sliced potatoes in the baking dish. Pour the cream mixture evenly over the potatoes. Sprinkle with cheddar and mozzarella cheeses.
Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden and bubbly.
Garnish: Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
Prepare the Garlic Beef Chops:
Season the Chops: Rub the beef chops with olive oil, garlic, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper on both sides.
Sear the Chops: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef chops and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, until browned.
Add Butter: Reduce the heat to medium. Add butter to the skillet, basting the chops with the melted butter and garlic for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until they reach your desired doneness (145°F for medium-rare).
Rest: Remove the chops from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serving Suggestions:
Plate the cheesy potatoes alongside the garlic beef chops.
Serve with a crisp side salad or steamed green beans for a balanced meal.
Pair with a bold red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon to complement the rich flavors.
