Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove all dirt. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Using a fork, poke several holes around each potato. This will allow steam to escape during baking and prevent the potatoes from bursting.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Brush each potato with the oil mixture, ensuring they are completely coated.
Sprinkle fresh rosemary evenly over the potatoes for added aroma and flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. You can test for doneness by inserting a fork or skewer into the center of the potato β it should go through easily.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
Serve the baked potatoes hot, sprinkled with fresh chives on top. Enjoy your delicious, low-sodium baked potatoes!
