Cucumber Melon White Balsamic
Garlic & Oregano Baked Potato
Crispy potato skins filled with creamy mashed potato, sharp cheddar, Garlic Olive Oil, and Santorini Oregano Balsamic, then baked until golden and topped with bacon, sour cream, and green onions.
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 1 hour 15 minutes
Makes: 4–8 servings
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes
- 2 tbsp Della Terra Garlic Olive Oil
- Pinch of kosher salt
Filling
- 2 tbsp Della Terra Garlic Olive Oil
- 1 tbsp Della Terra Santorini Oregano Balsamic
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- Pinch of kosher salt
- Pinch of pepper
Topping
- Bacon, diced
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 bunch green onions, finely chopped
Directions
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse potatoes and pierce the skins several times with a fork.
Place potatoes on the baking sheet, brush with Della Terra Garlic Olive Oil, and sprinkle with kosher salt.
Bake for 1 hour, or until tender.
Allow potatoes to cool slightly until easy to handle.
Cut each potato in half and carefully scoop out most of the inside, leaving enough potato attached so the skins hold their shape.
Place the scooped potato in a large bowl and mash well.
Stir in Garlic Olive Oil, Santorini Oregano Balsamic, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
Scoop the filling back into the potato skins.
Reduce oven temperature to 375°F and bake for 10–15 minutes, until the tops are lightly browned.
Top with bacon, sour cream, and chopped green onions.
Serve warm.
