1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Prepare the Potatoes
Scrub the Russet potatoes under running water and pat them dry with a towel.
3
Season the Potatoes
Pierce each potato several times with a fork. Rub the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
4
Bake the Potatoes
Place the potatoes directly on the middle rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the skins are crispy and a fork easily pierces the flesh.
5
Prepare the Toppings
While the potatoes are baking, chop the chives and set aside.
6
Serve
Remove the potatoes from the oven. Cut a slit in the top of each potato and fluff the insides with a fork. Add butter, sour cream, and chopped chives to taste before serving.
