Ingredients
- 3 large russet potatoes about 1.5 lb
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 6 lices Bacon
- 2 ½ cups Monterey jack cheese
For serving
- sour cream
- green onions
Instructions
Get Prepped
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Wash the potatoes, and slice (skin on) into quarter inch (1/2 centimeter) thick slices.
- Dice the bacon, chop the green onions.
- Grease a baking sheet with oil (use a brush and oil vs cooking spray). You may need 2 baking sheets.
Cook the bacon
- Heat a skillet to medium high and cook the bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
Season and cook the potatoes
- In a large bowl add the oil, salt, pepper thyme and garlic powder.
- Add the potatoes and mix well to coat all sides.
- Turn out on the greased baking sheet, and separate so they are in a single layer for even cooking.
- Cook for 20 minutes, then flip potatoes and cook 15-20 minutes further. Potatoes should be tender, and golden brown.
Topping
- Remove the potatoes and layer them in a large cast iron skillet, overlapping them loosely.
- Add the cheese and crumbed bacon evenly over the top.
- Set the oven to broil and return to the oven for 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Remove from oven, add the sour cream right in the middle, then sprinkle with green onions.
- Devour.

Notes
- This recipe tastes awesome with leftover corned beef if you have it. • Italian Seasoning in place of the thyme works great. • Mix up the cheeses – if you like things spicy, use some pepper jack. I also like 4 cheese Mexican blend style cheeses. Check out the refrigerated cheese section for ideas.
