Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 russet (baking) potatoes (about 1/2 pound each), scrubbed, patted dry, and rubbed with olive oil
olive oil for brushing the potato skins
sweet paprika for sprinkling the potato skins
fine sea salt or coarse salt for sprinkling the potato skins
sour cream as an accompaniment if desired

Steps:

  • Prick the potatoes a few times with a fork and bake them in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 1 hour. Let the potatoes cool, halve them lengthwise, and scoop them out, leaving a 1/4-inch shell and reserving the potato pulp for another use. Cut each shell lengthwise into 6 strips and arrange the strips on a baking sheet. Brush the strips with the oil, sprinkle them with paprika, the salt, and pepper to taste, and bake them in the middle of the preheated 425°F. oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are crisp and golden brown. Serve the potato skins with the sour cream.
