Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes with Ham

    4 cups peeled and sliced potatoes
    2 cups diced ham
    1/2 onion, chopped
    2 cups milk
    1 cup frozen peas
    3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    2 tablespoons butter
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
    1/8 teaspoon onion powder
    1 teaspoon dried parsley
    1/4 pound Cheddar cheese, diced
    1 pinch paprika, or to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
    
Layer half the potatoes, half the ham, and half the onion in an 2-quart baking dish; repeat the layers.
    
Heat milk, peas, flour, butter, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, 7 to 10 minutes.
    
Stir Cheddar cheese into sauce until cheese is melted.
    
Pour sauce over potato and ham mixture; sprinkle with paprika.
    
Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
    
Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour.
    
Remove foil and continue baking until lightly browned, about 15 minutes more.
