- 1tsp paprika shopping list
- kosher salt to taste shopping list
- 2 Tbsp melted butter shopping list
- 2 tsp fresh parsley, minced for garnish shopping list
How to make it
- Place the potaotes in cold water to prevent browning as they are prepared.
- Cut and discard a thin lengthwise slice from the bottom of each potato so that they will sit flat on a cutting board.
- Place two long handled wooden spoons or chopsticks lengthwise on both sides of potato to prevent knife from cutting entirely through. Using a sharp knife held at right angles to the wooden spoons or chopsticks, thinly slice potatoes crosswise, do not cut completely through.
- Return potatoes to cold water and repeat this process until all potatoes are sliced.
- Towel dry potatoes, place cut side up in a shallow greased baking pan, brush with 1 tablespoons oil.
- In a food processor puree the Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, paprika, salt and remaining 2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil; spread on potatoes pressing to adhere. Cover with foil and bake potatoes at 450° for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake 15-20 minutes more.
- The potato slices fan out as they bake. Drizzle with melted butter, parsley and serve.

I finally got around to trying this! I loved the crispy breading on it. My potato probably could have used another 10 minutes but I suppose that all could vary to the size of your potato. Delicious! Added my picture, too.
