Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a medium skillet (10-12"), melt the butter. Add the onion and cook for 2-3 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute, or just until you can smell it.
Stir in the flour with a whisk until smooth and combined. Add the chicken broth, heavy cream and milk to the skillet and cook, whisking often, until the sauce thickens considerably.
Stir in 2 cups of the shredded cheese and the chives until smooth. Salt and pepper the sauce to taste.
Stir in the sliced potatoes and stir until coated. Place the lid on the skillet and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
After 15 minutes, remove the lid, sprinkle on the remaining ½ cup cheese and cook in the oven for 20 minutes or until bubbly and potatoes are tender. Serve.
