Ingredients

The ingredients are:

  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Pre-bake potatoes and let cool completely. Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place foil on a rimmed baking sheet.

  • Step 2: Cut potatoes in half and scoop out pulp, leaving 1/4 inch shell. Place on baking sheet. I save the pulp for making potato pancakes.

  • Step 3: Combine oil, parmesan, salt, garlic powder, paprika and pepper and brush on potatoes, bottom first, then top. Bake about 8 minutes and turn over. Bake for another 6 minutes or so, then turn right side up.

  • Step 4: Sprinkle cheddar, bacon and green onions evenly inside skins and bake 2 minutes longer or til cheese is melted. Serve with sour cream.
