Crispy Baked Potatoes

In an effort to use up a few left over baked potatoes (I did five pounds at once in the crock pot), I came across your recipe and decided to give it a try! Since my potatoes were already done, I melted the butter, garlic salt and pepper in a nonstick skillet on the stove top, then sliced my potatoes in half placing them in the skillet cut side down. Used a bbq brush to baste the outside of the potatoes once in the beginning then just let them sit in the skillet on medium-low while I grilled tequila lime chicken outside. The result was fantastic! They had the crispiness and flavor I was looking for and were heated all the way through without having to wait for them to actually bake. I served them as suggested with sour cream and chives (our favorite way). I will definitely do this again with more already-baked potatoes!

I didn't have any butter so I used olive oil instead, topped with sea salt, cracked pepper, garlic powder and some chili powder. Cut new potatoes in half and arranged on top of the oil, cut side down. Baked for 30 minutes and it turned out amazing! Check out the picture I uploaded! Yums.

I was never really fond of baked potatoes, but this recipe is now one of my favorite ways to cook potatoes if not my new favorite. The outside is crispy, the inside is soft and creamy, reminiscent of good mashed potatoes. I did cook a little longer (maybe 10 ish minutes?), and I added Italian seasoning before cooking. They were heavenly even without toppings!

These were quite tasty. I did bake longer to achieve a crispier effect

This is great. I used 2 tablespoons of margarine and a drizzling of olive oil, and for seasoning used garlic salt and cayenne. Yum! The results are kind of like a giant french fry.

Tasty and easy, what more could I ask? I put this in the oven with Baked Balsamic Chicken #55673 about halfway through. A dollop of ranch dressing and these were a hit!

These are fantastic! I made them for Christmas Eve dinner and everyone just loved them and asked for the recipe. They turn such a beautiful golden brown and look every bit as good as they taste. I used an olive oil and butter combination and garlic powder as well the seasoning salt and pepper. Thanks for posting!

This was a good method and alternative for the plain old baked potato. Served it with Mexican Pot Roast for Tacos by Tyler Florence . I used olive oil instead of butter. It was really good!! I'll make this again, thanks!!

These are wonderful and we'll be making them many times again for sure. We did need to cook these for about twice the stated time to get them really crispy at the bottom but it was worth the wait. Thanks for the great recipe.

These were really easy and quite good. They didn't get as crisy as I thought they would and I cooked them past the time stated. All in all they were quick and easy and I will make again. Thanks!!

I can't believe I forgot to rate this recipe. This recipe is now used all the time at our house. It's easy, delicious, and takes half the time of regular baked potatoes and tastes much better. Thank you for an outstanding recipe.

This recipe is just fantastic. I wished I could have given it 10 stars. Followed the recipe exactly with an addition of Paprika to give it a nice color. Made it 6 hours ahead & left it out on the counter & baked it when we were ready to eat. Great recipe for parties too, thanks so much for sharing. Ferryal
