Easy Hasselback Potatoes Recipes

EASY CHEESY HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with foil
• Place each potato between two wooden spoons and carefully make cuts every 1/8-inch without cutting all the way through the potato.
• Place the potatoes on the baking sheet and brush them with the melted butter. Season them with salt and pepper.
• Bake the potatoes for 55 to 60 minutes or until tender. Remove them from the oven and carefully insert the cheddar cheese slices into each cut in the potato. Sprinkle the tops of the potatoes with the Parmesan cheese then return them to the oven and continue baking until the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven, top them with the chopped chives and serve immediately.

EASY HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F. Grease a medium-sized casserole dish with cooking spray; set aside.
• Place potatoes on a large plate. Microwave on high power for 10 minutes.
• After microwaving, allow the potatoes to cool for a few minutes before using a large sharp knife to cut fine slits ¾ of the way through the potatoes about ⅛ inch apart.
• Transfer the potatoes to the prepared baking dish.
• In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and olive oil. Add parmesan cheese, garlic paste, half of the chives, salt, and pepper.
• Brush the butter mixture over the potatoes, gently parting the slices to make sure butter gets down in between. Reserve extra butter mixture.
• Bake the potatoes for 10 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the oven and brush with the rest of the butter mixture and bake for an additional 12 to 15 minutes or until they are crispy on the outside and tender inside.
• Remove from the oven and brush the potatoes with the melted butter in the bottom of the dish. Top with remaining chives and Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve immediately.

• Preheat the oven to 425ºF

CHEESY HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F and line a baking sheet with foil.
• In a small saucepot, bring the butter, oil and garlic to a boil over high heat; remove from the heat.
• Using 2 wooden spoons placed on each side of a potato as a guide, cut the potato into thin slices about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick, without cutting through the bottom (the spoons will keep you from cutting all the way through the potato). Repeat with the remaining potatoes. Place the potatoes on the prepared baking sheet and brush each potato with some of the butter mixture, trying to get the butter between the slices. Sprinkle each potato with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 30 minutes, then remove the potatoes from the oven. The potatoes will have started to spread out from cooking and it will be easier to brush each slice with some more of the butter mixture. Put the potatoes back in the oven for an additional 20 minutes.
• Remove the potatoes from the oven again and sprinkle the Parmesan over the top and into the slices. Return to the oven to melt and brown the cheese, an additional 5 minutes. Serve the potatoes immediately.

HASSELBACK POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Peel the potatoes, and place in bowl of cold water to prevent browning. Place potatoes into a large wooden or metal spoon. Using a sharp knife, make slices across the potato the short way about 1/8 to 1/4 inch apart, making sure to cut down to the lip of the spoon, not all the way through the potato. The slices should stay connected at the bottom, and the spoon helps keep the depth even. Return the potato to the bowl of water, and proceed with the remaining potatoes.
• When all of the potatoes are cut, place them cut side up in a shallow baking dish or small roasting pan. Drizzle with half of the butter, then season with salt and pepper.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from the oven, and drizzle with the remaining butter. Sprinkle Romano cheese and bread crumbs onto the tops of the potatoes, and season with a little more salt and pepper. Return to the oven, and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until nicely browned.

BASIC HASSELBACK IDAHO® POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Prepare a bowl of cold water with a squeeze of lemon juice in it. Slice off the bottom of each Idaho® Russet Potato lengthwise to make them steadier for cutting. Place potato between two chopsticks. Cut slits 1/4 apart using the chopsticks as a guide to keep from cutting all the way through. The slices should stay connected at the bottom. Carefully fan out the sliced pieces without breaking them apart. Place the cut potato in the prepared bowl of water while you cut the remaining potatoes.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add a couple of sprigs of rosemary, the sliced garlic, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Let sit a few minutes to season the butter.
• Remove potatoes from water and dry thoroughly. Place on a baking sheet. Brush potatoes with some of the melted butter and bake for 1 hour. Halfway through cooking, the potatoes will start to fan out. When this happens, brush with some more of the melted butter.
• Remove from the oven. Brush with remaining butter, sprinkle with salt, and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve right away.
