3 and 1/2 tablespoons salted butter, very soft
1/2 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

TWICE BAKED POTATOES WITH BACON, BROCCOLI & CHEDDAR



TWICE BAKED POTATOES WITH BACON, BROCCOLI & CHEDDAR image

Categories     Potato     Bake

Yield 2-4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 Russet Potatoes
4 Slices Bacon
1 handful of Broccoli
2 Minced Scallion Stalks
Hunk of Grated Cheddar Cheese
2 Cloves Garlic Smashed & Minced
Glob Sour Cream
1/2 Stick Butter
Paprika & Chili Flakes (if you want)
Dash of S & P

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 400. Take butter out of the fridge and let rise to room temp. Scrub the potatoes and stick them straight on the bottom oven rack for 30m. Bacon & Broccoli Prep: You'll need a pan for bacon and a small pot for the broccoli. While the potatoes are warming up, set two burners to med-high (7-8 on the dial). Fry the bacon until crispy, and crunch into bits. Drop 2/3 of the bacon In a medium mixing bowl. Reserve 1/3 for garnish. Also reserve the bacon fat! In the small pot, add enough salted water to cover the broccoli (you don't need much) and bring to a boil. Add the broccoli and cook until al dente. Shock and strain in cold water. Chop up 2/3 very finely and throw in same bowl as bacon. The remaining 1/3, cut into small florets and reserve for garnish. Grate the Cheese into the bowl, reserving a bit for garnish. Back to the Spuds: When the 30 minutes are up, puncture the potatoes 4-6 times with a fork and turn over. Puncture deep. Cook another 30m and remove from the oven. Let stand 10m so you don't burn your hands when handling. While the potatoes are cooling, add sour cream, garlic, butter, S&P, (paprika/chili flakes) grated cheddar and scallions to the pot with the broccoli and bacon bits. Cut the top 1/4 length off of the potato. Carefully scoop out the potato innards and add to your bowl of goodies. Scrape as much as you can while keeping the potato skins in tact! Add the reserved bacon fat to the bowl and stir to combine all ingredients - Basically, you are making really rich mashed potatoes here. Now, scoop the mixture back into the skins and place the stuffed spuds on a baking tray (a cookie sheet will do). Stick back in the oven and bake for 20m or until the potato stuffing starts to brown. Add the reserved broccoli, bacon and grated cheese garnish and continue to bake until melted. Remove from oven, let cool slightly and shove in mouth.

WORLD FAMOUS TWICE BAKED POTATOES WITH BACON



World Famous Twice Baked Potatoes With Bacon image

These potatoes have become one of my trademark dishes. When I have friends coming into town they frequently call ahead to request it! The best part is that you really can make them the day before and just heat them up when the time is right. However, they never make it through the night in my household! We usually eat the potato as the main dish, with a big salad for a nice little meal. However, the guys sometimes like to grill steaks and corn to serve on the side.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 baking potatoes
olive oil
salt
6 -8 slices bacon, chopped
1/4 cup red wine
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup butter
1/2 cup half-and-half (works well with whole milk)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (I recommend Cheddar Barrel New York Aged Reserve)
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 tablespoons fresh chives (or 2 tsp dried)
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
paprika

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. While warming up rinse the potatoes and vent them with a fork 6-8 times.
  • Lightly brush potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake in the oven for 45-60 minutes, until outside is getting crispy and inside feels soft.
  • Towards the end of the potatoes baking, cook up bacon on medium heat until lightly crispy. I usually cook the bacon first and chop it after it is crispy, then returning it to the pan. Add wine and garlic. Feel free to add pepper to taste. I use the garlic from a jar but fresh works just as well. Leave on very low heat.
  • After removing potatoes from the oven, use a knife to cut an oval in the top of the potato, leaving about 1/4 inch on all sides. Scoop out potato and put into large bowl. When you are done you should have 8 potato shells.
  • Combine potato and butter. Blend with a mixer on low speed until butter melts.
  • Add milk, seasoning, 3/4 cup of the cheese and the bacon mixture. Beat on high speed until smooth. Add more seasoning if necessary to taste.
  • Spoon mixture into shells. Use the remaining cheddar cheese to top each potato and sprinkle with paprika.
  • Place potatoes on a baking sheet or dish and bake at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until potato is warm and cheese on top is crispy.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     Potato

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 medium russet potatoes
1/2 cup light sour cream
1/4 cup margarine
1/4 cup skim milk
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup chopped broccoli (fresh or frozen)
2 teaspoons dry ranch dressing mix (optional but delicious)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Bake the potatoes in a 400 degree oven for about 1 hour. *Okay, I s'pose you could use microwaved "baked" potatoes instead to save time and they'd come out fine. But, please, if you do have the time, take the time to bake them. They'll taste much better and the skins will hold up much nicer.*.
  • After the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice each one in half lengthwise and scoop the guts out into a large mixing bowl, being careful to leave the skins intact. Place skins on ungreased cookie sheet and set aside.
  • Add margarine to potato guts and mash using a potato masher until fairly smooth.
  • Add sour cream, milk, 1/2 cup of the cheese, ranch dressing mix, chopped broccoli, and seasonings, and mix well.
  • Spoon the potato mixture back into the skins, top with the remaining cheese, and bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • For a crispier potato skin, bake the potatoes for an additional 10-15 minutes before scooping out the flesh.
  • To make the potatoes ahead of time, bake them according to the recipe and let them cool completely. Then, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat the potatoes in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through.
  • Feel free to get creative with the fillings. Some other popular options include:
    • Sausage and cheese
    • Ham and cheese
    • Chicken and broccoli
    • Tuna salad
    • Crab salad
  • If you don't have a potato scoop, you can use a spoon to scoop out the flesh.
  • Be careful not to overfill the potato skins. They should be filled to the brim, but not so full that they're overflowing.
  • For a vegetarian version of this recipe, omit the bacon. You can also use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

Conclusion:

Twice-baked potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're also a great way to use up leftover potatoes.
