Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 6 slices Thick-cut bacon
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
• 0.5 cup Sour cream

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Place the slices in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Drizzle the olive oil over the potato slices, then sprinkle with smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the slices evenly.

Step 4

Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown and tender.

Step 5

While the potatoes are baking, cook the thick-cut bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.

Step 6

Remove the potatoes from the oven and evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the slices. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 7

Transfer the cheesy potato slices to a serving platter. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and chopped green onions evenly over the top.

Step 8

Serve the country-style appetizers warm with a dollop of sour cream on the side or as a topping.
