Just two more days until a long holiday weekend, wooohooo! Here is a wonderful recipe for you to take home and try. It will come in handy for those football parties right around the corner too.
Cheesy Bacon Oven Chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bring sliced potatoes to a boil in cold, salted water to cover for 5 minutes. Carefully drain, and transfer slices to a paper-towel lined countertop or cutting board. Pat to dry.
Grease a baking sheet with cooking spray, and lay out potato slices so they are overlapping on it. Spray lightly with additional cooking spray, then sprinkle with salt & pepper to taste. Sprinkle evenly with shredded cheese & bacon. Bake 12-14 minutes in preheated oven until cheese is melted & bubbly. Serve with chipotle ranch sauce (recipe below). Serves 2.
*You can use 2 medium-sized potatoes rather than 1 large. Also, I like to leave the skin on but you can peel the potatoes if you prefer.
Chipotle Ranch Dipping Sauce
Place all ingredients in a small bowl, and stir to combine. Refrigerate any leftovers.
- 1 large, uniformly-shaped russet potato, scrubbed well and sliced into 1/8" rounds*
- cooking spray
- 3/4 C. shredded colby jack or cheddar cheese
- salt & pepper to taste
- 2 T. crumbled bacon (about 2 slices) - I used real bacon bits
- chopped parsley or chives, for garnish (optional)
