Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter (divided)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and prepare an unlined baking sheet.
  2. Place one potato between two chopsticks or skewers to guide your cuts.
  3. Make vertical slits in the potato (about ⅛ inch apart), stopping when you hit the chopsticks.
  4. Transfer the sliced potatoes to the baking sheet and brush half of the melted butter over each potato, ensuring it seeps into the slits.
  5. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
  6. Bake for 30 minutes, then gently separate the layers using a knife.
  7. Brush on the remaining melted butter and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  8. Serve warm with extra seasoning if desired.
