Personally when making "baked" potatoes, I like to microwave for 10 minutes, then coat with a smidgeon of olive oil before putting them under a grill (broiler) to brown the skins up.
ReplyDeleteYour filling sounds amazing!
Wow, I think I learn something new every day. I've never thought to stick the microwaved potatoes under the broiler. Thanks for the tip, Lauren!
ReplyDeleteWe used to get these all the time at a local restaurant. You could buy different kinds. Some had chicken, some beef. Yum!
