• Ready In: 1hr 30mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 4 baking potatoes (about 2 pounds)
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 large vidalia onion, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1⁄2 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, divided

directions

1. Preheat oven to 350*F.
2. Wrap each potato in foil; bake about 1 hour, turning once, until tender.
3. Meanwhile, in a frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat; add the onion and sugar and cook, stirring often, until golden--8-10 minutes.
4. Remove pan from heat; cool for 10 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the sour cream with 1 Tbsp of parsely, broth granules, salt, and pepper; set aside.

7. Scoop out the pulp, leaving a 1/2" thick shell.
8. Add the potato pulp to the sour cream mixture; mash until smooth.
9. Spoon the mixture back into the potato shells; top with additional sour cream (if using) and the onion mixture.
10. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 Tbsp. parsely.

A nice alternative to regular twiced baked potatoes. Were a hit at our Father's Day dinner.

Excellent flavor. I don't think I would have ever thought of adding these specific ingredients together. Thanks for sharing.
