Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium to large Yukon gold potatoes
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter divided
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/3 cups whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt divided
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper divided
  • 3 tablespoons chopped chives divided
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese divided
  • 2/3 cup panko Japanese bread crumbs

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Peel and thinly slice potatoes.
  3. In a large nonstick saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium heat. Sift flour over butter, whisking to combine. Cook flour mixture for 2 to 3 minutes or until thickened, whisking well. Slowly add milk, whisking to combine. Cook for 5 minutes or until thickened, whisking frequently. Add 3/4 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper, whisking well.
  4. Spread 1/4 cup milk mixture over bottom of prepared dish. Layer half of potatoes evenly in a circular pattern over milk mixture. Spread half of remaining milk mixture over potatoes. Top with 1 tablespoon chopped chives and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers with remaining potatoes, milk mixture, and 1 tablespoon chopped chives.
  5. Microwave remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds or until melted. Combine butter, panko, remaining 1/2 cup grated Parmesan, remaining ¼ teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Spread over potatoes. Cover, and bake for 45 minutes. Remove cover, and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Top with remaining 1 tablespoon chives. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
