๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿณ Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

๐ŸŽฏ Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC). Pierce each potato several times with a fork. Rub potatoes with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt. Bake directly on the oven rack for 50-60 minutes until tender.

    โฑ๏ธ 60 min (ish) ๐ŸŒก๏ธ 400ยฐF
    AI Wisdom: Potatoes are done when a knife easily pierces through.
  2. 2

    Let the potatoes cool slightly. Cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch attached to the skin.

    โฑ๏ธ 10 min (ish)
    AI Wisdom: Save the scooped-out potato for another use like mashed potatoes.
  3. 3

    Increase oven temperature to 450ยฐF (230ยฐC). Place potato skins on a baking sheet, skin side down. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

    โฑ๏ธ 5 min (ish) ๐ŸŒก๏ธ 450ยฐF
    AI Wisdom: Season generously for flavor.
  4. 4

    Bake the skins for 10 minutes until they start to crisp. Remove from the oven and sprinkle cheese, bacon, and green onions over the skins.

    โฑ๏ธ 10 min (ish) ๐ŸŒก๏ธ 450ยฐF
    AI Wisdom: Cheese should be melted and bubbly.
  5. 5

    Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is fully melted. Serve hot as an appetizer.

    โฑ๏ธ 3 min (ish) ๐ŸŒก๏ธ 450ยฐF
    AI Wisdom: Watch carefully to prevent burning.
