Ingredients
4 large Russet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
Optional Toppings:
2 tablespoons sour cream
â…“ cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
¼ cup diced green onions
Instructions
Preheat Blackstone griddle to 400°F (200°C)
Scrub potatoes clean and dry thoroughly using a towel
Rub each potato with ½ tablespoon olive oil and about 1 teaspoon kosher salt (divided)
Using a griddle spoon or spud tongs, gently press potatoes into the hot griddle surface until they seats securely
Close lid or cover the griddle, and bake 20-25 minutes without disturbing
Carefully flip each potato with tongs and cook an additional 10-15 minutes until skin is crispy and insides are tender
Remove from griddle, slice open, and add desired toppings immediately
Notes
Choose uniform-sized potatoes for even cooking
Avocado oil or canola oil can substitute for olive oil
Adjust salt to taste or mix with garlic powder for extra flavor
Only flip once, as multiple moves can cause potatoes to break
Classic toppings: Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for halal versions, steamed broccoli, or sautéed mushrooms
Store leftover toppings in an airtight container up to 3 days if separated from cooked potatoes
