Number Of Ingredients 9

4 large russet potatoes
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarragon (if desired)
Salt
Pepper
Chives, bacon, cheddar, chili if desired

Steps:

  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 425°. Poke 4 large russet potatoes all over with a fork; rub with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Bake directly on oven rack until very soft when squeezed and skins are crisp, 50-60 minutes. Let cool just until you can hold them.
  • Using a serrated knife, slice potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop flesh into a medium bowl. Add 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup unsalted butter, 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives, and 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarragon (if desired); season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Divide among 4 potato skin halves, piling gloriously high-don't pack too tightly. (And what about the leftover skins? We say add butter and salt and snack on them.)
  • Increase oven temperature to 450°. Bake potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet until filling is puffed and browned in spots, 20-25 minutes.
  • No need to stop at chives. Add bacon, cheddar, chili-why hold back now?

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The potatoes are always fluffy and cheesy, and the bacon adds a nice smoky flavor.

These potatoes were a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll use less cheese next time.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made these twice-baked potatoes without the bacon. They were still delicious!

These potatoes were a little bland. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.

I've never made twice-baked potatoes before, but this recipe was easy to follow and the results were amazing. I'll definitely be making these again.

These potatoes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more milk or cream next time.

I'm not a huge fan of potatoes, but these twice-baked potatoes were surprisingly delicious. The cheese and bacon really make them.
