Baked Potato Ingredients

Method

Baked Potato Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash the Russet potatoes thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with a towel.

  2. 2

    Season the Potatoes

    Using a fork, poke several holes into each potato. Rub each potato with olive oil and sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over them.

  3. 3

    Bake the Potatoes

    Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the skins are crispy.

  4. 4

    Check for Doneness

    To check if the potatoes are done, insert a fork or knife into the center of a potato. If it slides in easily, they are ready.

  5. 5

    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 as toppings.
