Hassleback Potatoes



This is such and easy and elegant looking side dish.  It's a great alternative to a baked potato or roasted potatoes.  Try adding some chopped herbs of your choice for a little pop of color.

Hasselback Potatoes



Ingredients:

Yukon Gold Potatoes

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt, pepper and garlic powder 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Using a wooden spoon as a cradle, place each potato in the spoon and make several parallel slits into each potato top making sure not to slice completely through. Toss in a medium bowl with olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and garlic. Bake until tops are crispy and potatoes are cooked through, about 1 hour.

I used to make these on the grill, wrapped in tin foil. We loved sprinkling them with the dried mix for Good Seasons salad dressing after they were oiled, or sometimes buttered. Sounds weird but we all love them that way.
