Sliced Baked Potatoes 😋
Ingredients
4 large potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (optional)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash and scrub the potatoes well. Leave the skin on for extra flavor.
Slice each potato thinly, but not all the way through—like a fan or accordion shape.
(Tip: Place chopsticks or wooden spoons on each side of the potato while slicing to prevent cutting all the way through.)
In a small bowl, mix:
melted butter
olive oil
garlic
salt
pepper
paprika
dried parsley
thyme
Brush the mixture generously over and between the potato slices.
Place potatoes in a baking dish or on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 45–55 minutes, until tender and crispy on the edges.
If using cheese, sprinkle cheddar on top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
Optional Toppings
Sour cream
Bacon bits
Green onions
Parmesan cheese
Crispy outside, soft inside, and absolutely delicious!
