Baked potato skins are easy and honestly whatever you put on them is going to be delicious. Below is a recipe I created a while ago but I still use it today!
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
- Wash and dry your russet potato.
- Poke holes into the skin and deep into the flesh on all sides of the potatoes.
- Place the potatoes into the oven and roast for an hour.
- Cut the potatoes in half and scoop out 2/3rds of the potato and throw it away.
- Place the potato skins in a bowl and toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper and paprika.
- Add it to the potatoes skin side down to a cookie sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
- Then add cheese to them and place them back in the oven for 10 more minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Remove the potato skins and top with cheese (allow it to melt) and add a little sour cream, chopped chives, and black olives to the top and serve.
