Cheddar Herb Hasselback Potatoes
Total time: 55 minutes
Ingredients
  • 4 russet potatoes
  • 6 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon mccormick® coarse ground black pepper, divided
  • 1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon mccormick® garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon mccormick® oregano leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon mccormick® paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon mccormick® onion powder
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. Trim 1/4-inch from ends of 4 russet potatoes.
  3. Slice potatoes crosswise at 1/4-inch intervals, leaving bottom 1/4-inch of potato intact. (Need a foolproof method to achieve the Hasselback effect? Place a wooden spoon or pencil on either side of the potato to prevent your knife from cutting all the way through.)
  4. Gently rinse potatoes, being careful not to break apart. Place potatoes, cut-side down, on a microwave-safe plate and microwave about 10 to 12 minutes until slightly softened, turning potatoes halfway through cooking.
  5. Line large shallow baking pan with foil. Arrange potatoes, cut-side up, on baking sheet.
  6. Brush potatoes with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper.
  7. Bake 30 minutes or until skin is crispy and potatoes are lightly browned.
  8. Meanwhile, mix remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/3 cup panko, 1/3 cup Parmesan, 1/4 cup cheddar, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon onion powder in small bowl.
  9. Remove potatoes from oven.
  10. Top potatoes with panko-cheese mixture, carefully pressing some of the mixture into cuts.
  11. Broil about 1 minute or until cheese is golden brown.
