Although you can make it quickly in the microwave, baking it in the oven will brown and crisp the outside. After cutting, the inside is soft and fluffy. Enjoy this baked potato recipe as a side with your favorite protein, or make it into a meal and top it with chili or broccoli and cheese like the Chili Baked Potato and these Broccoli and Cheese Twice Baked Potatoes. Potatoes are a whole food, a good source of fiber and also packed with antioxidants.

You'll also need olive oil spray, not to be confused with cooking spray, and salt. When you're ready to bake, follow these steps:</p> <ol> <li>First, preheat the oven to 425 and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.</li> <li>Prepare the potatoes by washing and drying them well. Then prick the potatoes all over with the tines of a fork</li> <li>Next, season the potatoes with salt and place on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle olive oil all over.</li> <li>Season generously with kosher salt and place in the preheated oven to bake.</li> <li>Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until the skin is golden brown and crispy and you can easily pierce the potatoes with a small knife.</li> </ol> <h2>Baked potato from the microwave</h2> <ol> <li>Cook the potato for 3 to 4 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes.</li> <li>For each additional potato you cook, add 1 minute for each side.</li> <li>If still hard, continue cooking in 1 minute increments until potato is tender</li> </ol> <h2>Tips for the perfect baked potato</h2> <p>Don't wrap it in foil. Although you might be tempted to wrap the potato in foil, this doesn't give you the truly crispy skin we're looking for here. Leaving the potatoes unwrapped will give you the best results.</p> <p>Salt outside. The skin is full of fiber, so don't throw it away! To make it tasty, you should salt it so that it is tasty and crunchy.</p> <h2>how to serve</h2> <p>Depending on how hungry you are, you can eat half or a whole potato as a side dish. Serve this baked potato with some sour cream or some butter, salt and pepper. Or load it up with sour cream, crumbled bacon, shredded cheese and chives to make a stuffed baked potato.</p> <p><img decoding=
