Patata al forno

Ingredienti

• 4 large russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
• 1/4 cup sour cream (optional, for serving)

Preparazione

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.

2. 2

   Scrub the potatoes clean under running water and pat them dry with a towel.

3. 3

   Pierce each potato several times with a fork. Rub potatoes with olive oil, then sprinkle with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

4. 4

   Place the seasoned potatoes directly onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 55-60 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the skins are crisp and the inside is tender.

5. 5

   Remove potatoes from the oven. Make a slit in the top of each potato, fluff the insides with a fork, and top with butter, chives, and sour cream if desired. Serve hot.
