Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Medium Russet Potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Chives
- 1 cup Low Sodium Sour Cream
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash the Russet potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove dirt. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Using a fork, poke several holes all over each potato. This ensures steam escapes while baking.
Rub each potato evenly with olive oil, then sprinkle with black pepper to taste. Place the potatoes on a baking tray.
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are baking, finely chop the fresh chives and set them aside.
Once the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes.
Cut a deep cross on top of each potato and gently squeeze the ends to open up the potato slightly.
Fluff the insides of the potatoes with a fork, then add half a tablespoon of unsalted butter to each potato.
Top each potato with 1/4 cup of low sodium sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped chives.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious homemade low sodium jacket potatoes.
