Garlic Buttered Baked Potatoes




Ingredients for each potato:
  • 1 large baking potato
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic (I use the refrigerated kind in a jar)
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon shredded parmesan cheese


  1. Melt butter. 
  2. Add the garlic and cayenne pepper.
  3. Cut ¼ inch slices across each potato, but not all the way through.
  4. Place each potato on a individual sheet of aluminum foil.
  5. Pour melted butter mixture in the crevices of the potato.  Sprinkle with half the parmesan cheese.
  6. Wrap the potato, top side up in aluminum foil.  Place wrapped potato in a baking container as the butter could drip.
  7. Bake in a 425 degree oven for 1 hour or until tender, testing with a fork.
  8. Unwrap and plate.
  9. Sprinkle the remaining shredded parmesan cheese across the top.
  10. Serve and enjoy.
