Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds cooked deli-style brisket
• 2 large russet potatoes
• 1 large yellow onion
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1.5 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Thinly slice the russet potatoes and yellow onion into rounds. Ensure the potato slices are about 1/8 inch thick for even cooking.

Step 3

In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion slices and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened and lightly golden. Set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux.

Step 5

Gradually add the beef broth to the skillet, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens slightly, about 2-3 minutes. Season the sauce with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat.

Step 6

In a 9x13-inch baking dish, layer half of the potato slices on the bottom. Top with half of the cooked onions and half of the sliced deli brisket.

Step 7

Pour half of the prepared sauce over the first layer. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top.

Step 8

Repeat the layering process with the remaining potatoes, onions, brisket, and sauce. Finish with the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese.

Step 9

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

Step 10

After 45 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is golden and bubbly.

Step 11

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Step 12

Enjoy your warm, satisfying Deli Brisket Bake!
