Ingredients

• 4 pieces large russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (optional)
• 2 tablespoons chives or green onions, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Wash the potatoes thoroughly under cold water and scrub well to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel.

Step 3

Pierce each potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 4

Rub each potato with olive oil, ensuring it is well coated.

Step 5

Sprinkle sea salt, black pepper, and dried Italian herbs (if using) evenly over each potato.

Step 6

Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet for easier handling.

Step 7

Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes until the skins are crispy and a fork inserts easily into the centers.

Step 8

Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes.

Step 9

Slice each potato lengthwise, gently pressing the sides to open them up. Serve warm, optionally garnished with chopped chives or green onions.
