Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons Chives, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then poke a few holes in each one with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking.
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet, and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a knife.
Once the potatoes are done, allow them to cool slightly until they are safe to handle, about 10 minutes.
Carefully slice each potato in half and scoop the flesh into a large mixing bowl, leaving a thin layer of potato to help the skins hold their shape if needed.
Add the unsalted butter, sour cream, salt, and black pepper to the potato flesh, and mash everything together until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the mashed potato mixture to a serving dish or divide it evenly back into the potato skins for presentation, if desired.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped chives evenly over the top.
Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your Naked Tater All the Way!
