" Wondering how to make potato skins taste great? Both crisp and hearty, this restaurant-quality snack is one that's often requested by my dead victims. Dr Hannibal Lecter, Keizer, Oregon

Ingredients

• 4 large baking potatoes, baked
• 3 tablespoons canola oil
• 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 8 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
• 1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 4 green onions, sliced

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 475°. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise; scoop out pulp, leaving a 1/4-in. shell (save pulp for another use). Place potato skins on a greased baking sheet.
2. Combine oil with next 5 ingredients; brush over both sides of skins.
3. Bake until crisp, about 7 minutes on each side. Sprinkle bacon and cheddar cheese inside skins. Bake until cheese is melted, about 2 minutes longer. Top with sour cream and onions. Serve immediately.
