Rub the bottom and side of an oval or 9 x 13 baking dish with the garlic. The object is to have the garlic almost fall apart and flavor the dish. Peel the potatoes, and slice into a medium thickness, about ¼”, or thinner if you prefer. Place the potatoes in a large bowl and pour in the melted butter. Season with the salt, black pepper, optional cayenne pepper, and toss to coat. Layer the potatoes in your baking dish and pour in the chicken stock or vegetable broth. Season the top with more freshly ground black pepper if desired. Cover with aluminum foil and place in the center of the 425-degree F (220 C) oven. Cooked covered for 45 minutes, then uncover and cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 30-40 more minutes. Garnish with the parsley or chives, and serve. Potatoes can be made ahead. Let cool, cover, refrigerate overnight, and reheat the following day. Let come to room temperature and reheat in a 350-degree F (180 C) oven for about 15-20 minutes. Makes 4-6 servings. ------ #scallopedpotatoes #augratinpotatoes #easyrecipes Follow me: IG - https://www.instagram.com/southernaccentfoods/
