While this delicious potato skillet is a wonderful side dish, we find it satisfying enough to be a main course, too. The skillet preparation takes less time that it does to bake an au gratin casserole or scalloped potatoes- but it's still good old-fashioned comfort food at its best! Ingredients:
6 bacon strips, diced |
1 medium onion, chopped |
4 cups sliced peeled cooked potatoes |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas, cooked and drained |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
1/2 cup milk |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels. Drain, reserving 1 tablespoon drippings. In the drippings, saute onion until tender.
2. Layer with potatoes, salt, peas, 1 cup of cheese and bacon. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until heated through.
3. Combine mayonnaise and milk until smooth; pour over bacon. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Remove from the heat; let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Yield: 4 servings.
