Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup button mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Slice them into rounds approximately 1/4-inch thick.
Place the potato slices in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the slices evenly.
Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Avoid overlapping for even cooking.
Bake the potato slices in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until golden brown and tender.
While the potatoes are baking, clean and slice the mushrooms thinly.
In a small skillet, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5–7 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are tender and slightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the potatoes are baked, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Top each potato slice with a small amount of sautéed mushrooms and a generous sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2–3 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
