Ingredients:
4 medium potatoes, skins on
4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons olive oil
garlic salt ( to taste)
Mrs. Dash seasoning mix or your own favorite seasoning, mix
sour cream ( optional garnish)
chives ( optional garnish)
Directions:
Scrub the potatoes.
Score each potato lengthwise on one side, you’ll be cutting them in half along this line after pre-cooking.
Microwave the potatoes 4 to 6 minutes to start the cooking process.
Do not fully cook them.
Slice the pre-cooked potatoes in half lengthwise and make 1/2″ deep cross cuts on the open face of each half.
(Like tic tac toe marks).
Sprinkle the potatoes generously with garlic salt and your favorite seasoning to taste.
Place face down in a skillet with butter or olive oil.
Cook on medium heat about 6 minutes until lightly browned.
Turn and cook another 3 to 5 minutes to crisp the skin a bit.
Enjoy.
