Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preparing the Potatoes
Start by parboiling the potato slices in salted water until they are slightly tender but still firm. This crucial step ensures the potatoes cook evenly in the oven without losing their shape.
Step 2: Preparing the Chicken Filling
Boil the chicken with aromatics until fully cooked, then shred it into bite-sized pieces. For an extra layer of flavor, lightly sauté the shredded chicken with a small dollop of Almarai Al Damashqiah Butter and your favorite spices.
Step 3: Crafting the Bechamel with “Almarai Al Damashqiah”
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the Almarai Al Damashqiah Butter. Whisk in the flour until golden and fragrant. Gradually pour in the milk, whisking constantly to achieve a silky-smooth, lump-free consistency. Season with salt, white pepper, and nutmeg.
Step 4: Layering the Gratin
Grease a baking dish with a little Almarai Al Damashqiah Butter. Arrange a layer of potatoes, followed by the shredded chicken, a portion of the bechamel, and a generous sprinkle of Almarai Al Damashqiah Cheeses. Repeat the layers, finishing with a thick coating of bechamel and a heavy topping of mixed cheeses.
Step 5: Baking to Perfection
Place the dish in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 25–35 minutes. During the final few minutes, turn on the broiler to achieve a stunning golden-brown crust and a bubbly, melted cheese finish.
