Beef Marsala And Scalloped Potato Casserole Recipes

BEEF MARSALA AND SCALLOPED POTATO CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. In a large skillet over medium high heat add the oil and sauté the onion for 3 minutes. Add the ground beef, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Break up the ground beef with a spoon and brown for several minutes.
• Deglaze the pan with the marsala wine and reduce to half. Sprinkle the flour on top of meat and stir. Cook for 2 minutes and then add beef broth. Stir as sauce will thicken. Cook for 2 minutes.
• Pour meat mixture into a 9x9" casserole dish (or 2 smaller individual ones as pictured) coated with cooking spray and add the cheddar cheese on top.
• In a small bowl whisk together the milk, water, butter and sauce mix from scalloped potato box.
• Sprinkle the scalloped potatoes on top of cheddar cheese and meat and evenly pour the milk mixture over all. Bake for 20 minutes uncovered or until top is golden brown and edges crispy. Allow to rest 10 minutes (sauce will thicken upon standing) and top with parsley for garnish (optional) and serve.

Steps:

• Spray 4 1/2- to 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
• In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook beef and onions over medium-high heat 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until brown; drain. Return beef mixture to skillet, and place over low heat; stir in cream cheese. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until cream cheese melts.
• In slow cooker, mix water and sauce mixes (from scalloped potatoes boxes), then stir in potatoes (from scalloped potatoes boxes). Spread beef mixture over potatoes.
• Cover; cook on Low heat setting 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until potatoes are tender and liquid is absorbed.

KITTENCAL'S SCALLOPED POTATO AND GROUND BEEF CASSEROLE

Steps:

• In a skillet cook the ground beef with onion, bell pepper and chili flakes (if using) until no longer pink; drain fat over a colander.
• Return to pan and add in garlic, season salt and black pepper; cook stirring with a wooden spoon until the meat is lightly browned (I usually add in about 1-2 tablespoons bacon fat that I keep frozen in my freezer to the meat while browning for added flavor and it also helps to brown the meat) set aside.
• For the sauce; in a medium bowl mix together the undiluted soup with onion, milk, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, seasoned salt and black pepper to taste; mix well to combine.
• In a greased 13 x 9-inch baking dish or a large oval casserole dish, alternately layer the sliced potatoes on bottom of the baking dish, then soup mixture (I like to sprinkle grated cheddar cheese on top of the soup mixture) then the ground beef mixture on top.
• Since this is a large casserole I strongly suggest to place the baking dish on a jelly-roll sheet in case of any spills.
• Bake covered with foil for about 1 hour at 350 degrees F.
• Uncover and continue baking for another 20-30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender (baking time will vary depending on the thickness of your sliced potatoes).
• Remove from oven then sprinkle with grated cheddar cheese; return to oven for 4-5 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
