Ingredients
- 4 Russet potatoes
- ¼ cup unsalted butter thinly sliced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 4 lices Bacon diced
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Using a sharp knife, make crosswise cuts in each potato, about 1/8-inch apart, stopping about 1/4 inch from the bottom. Add butter slices to between the cuts; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Transfer potatoes to a baking sheet. Place into oven and bake until the outsides are browned and crisp, about 1 hour. Top with cheese and bake until melted, an additional 5 minutes.
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add bacon and cook until brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Serve potatoes immediately, topped with sour cream, bacon and chives.
