Preparation Steps
In a large pot, combine chicken broth and cubed potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
While potatoes are cooking, melt butter in a separate saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute to create a roux.
Gradually whisk in milk into the roux until smooth. Cook until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Reduce heat to low. Gradually stir in shredded cheese until melted and smooth.
Pour cheese sauce into the pot with the potatoes and broth. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
Optional: Top with crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, or sour cream.
