Foil Potatoes
Individually baked foiled potatoes can be done in the oven, on a barbecue or even in a campfire. Tasty and fun to do.
Ingredients
- 4 medium baking potatoes, scrubbed
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese
- 2 teaspoons freshly chopped parsley
- (Serves 4)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Lay out 4 squares of aluminum foil on the counter.
- Scrub the potatoes clean cutting off any blemishes.
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise, then cut in opposite direction so that you have quartered the potato.
- Place onto a square of aluminum foil. Place 1/4 tablespoon of butter onto the cut side of each half, then season with garlic powder and salt.
- Close the potato back together, and wrap tightly in the aluminum foil.
- Bake potatoes directly on the oven rack for 40 minutes, or until tender.
- Open carefully, divide the shredded cheese while the potatoes are still hot and sprinkle with parsley.
