BAKED POTATO PACKETS



Baked Potato Packets image

My family, especially my husband, loves lots of flavor with his potatoes. We were getting bored with the same old baked potatoes. So we started doing this with them and they are fantastic. I put measurements for the seasonings, but I always just use a pinch or two of them. It's all according to taste.

Categories     Potato

Time 45m

Yield 4 baked potato packets, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 potatoes, washed and patted dry
4 tablespoons butter, divided
1 onion, sliced
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 teaspoon garlic salt, divided
1 teaspoon thyme, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Cut 4 pieces of tinfoil big enough to wrap everything up.
  • Slice one potato into thin slices and place on a piece of tinfoil.
  • Top with some sliced mushrooms and onions, to your taste.
  • Sprinkle with a pinch of garlic salt and thyme.
  • Top with 1 tbs butter.
  • Wrap tinfoil tightly around.
  • Repeat with remaining potatoes.
  • Place potato packets in oven.
  • Bake 30-40 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for baked potatoes because they have a high starch content, which makes them fluffy and light when baked.
  • Scrub the potatoes well before baking: This will help to remove any dirt or debris from the potatoes.
  • Prick the potatoes with a fork: This will help to allow the steam to escape from the potatoes as they bake, preventing them from bursting.
  • Rub the potatoes with oil: This will help to create a crispy skin on the potatoes.
  • Season the potatoes generously: You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other seasonings that you like.
  • Bake the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy skin on the potatoes and a fluffy interior.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork into the potatoes; they should be tender all the way through.
  • Let the potatoes cool slightly before serving: This will help to prevent them from burning your mouth.

Conclusion:

Baked potatoes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. They are perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a special occasion dinner. With so many different ways to season and top baked potatoes, there is sure to be a recipe that everyone will enjoy.
