Crispy Oven Baked Potato Skins

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.

2. Scrub the potatoes and poke each potato with a fork 5-6 times. Place them directly on the middle rack of the oven. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until tender when poked with a fork.

3. Remove from the oven and let cool until the potatoes are easy to handle.

4. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon, scoop out the flesh leaving a ¼-inch thick shell.

5. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, parsley, seasoned salt, and garlic powder. Brush the inside and outside of the potatoes with the butter mixture.

6. Place potatoes cut side down in a baking dish or 9x13 inch pan. Bake for 15 minutes.

7. Flip potatoes over and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until slightly browned and crisp.

8. Fill each potato with cheese and bacon. Return to the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

9. Remove from the oven, top with green onion and serve with sour cream.
