directions

Step 1

Scrub and pat potatoes dry; prick all over with fork. Bake on foil-lined baking sheet in preheated 400°F (200°C) oven until tender, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool enough to handle.

Step 2

Cut lengthwise in half; scoop out flesh, leaving ½-inch (1 cm) thick walls (reserve flesh for soups or dips). Cut each piece in half again lengthwise; brush all over with oil; sprinkle with salt.

Step 3

Arrange, skin sides down, on same baking sheet. Bake in preheated 450°F (230°C) oven until golden and with crisp edges, about 15 minutes.

Step 4

Meanwhile, stir sour cream with chives; set aside.

Step 5

Sprinkle skins with cheese and bacon; return to oven and bake until cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with chive sour cream.
