Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. Peel and slice 2 large potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are slightly tender.
Step 2: Layer half the potatoes in the skillet, then sprinkle with 1/2 cup mozzarella, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan, and 1/4 cup heavy cream. Top with remaining potatoes, then sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella, 1/4 cup Parmesan, and 1/4 cup heavy cream.
Step 3: Cover with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake for 10 more minutes until golden. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped chives before serving.
