Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly under running water. Pat them dry with a clean towel.

    Oil and Season

    Rub each potato with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.

    Place the prepared potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the inside is soft when pierced with a fork.

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, cut a slit down the center of each potato, add butter, sour cream, and top with chives before serving.
