Recipe View Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh chives and a sprinkle of smoked paprika, if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a clove of minced garlic to the potatoes while they are simmering.
You can substitute half-and-half or milk for the sour cream for a lighter version.
For a richer flavor, use brown butter instead of melted butter.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs, such as dill or parsley, in addition to or instead of the chives.
The casserole can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.

    I used Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and it was still delicious and a little healthier.
