Ingredients

  • 5 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed and all grit removed.
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • olive oil

For the Potato Skins

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

  7. Let the potato skins cool slightly and then garnish with a dollop of herbed Greek yogurt and fresh chives.
