  6. Stir in dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

  7. Add grated Parmesan cheese and stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

  8. In a greased baking dish, layer thinly sliced potatoes.

  9. Pour a portion of the creamy garlic and Parmesan sauce over the potatoes.

  10. Repeat the layering process until all the potatoes and sauce are used, finishing with a layer of sauce on top.

  11. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

  12. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender.

  13. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

  14. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
