Next is a loaded baked potato from almost any of the BBQ places around here. Of course with sour cream, butter and shredded cheese.

A few years ago, when I was trying to eat healthier, I found simple recipe for baked (microwaved) potato with fresh steamed broccoli and a bit of grated cheddar cheese on top. Oh, my goodness, eating healthy has never tasted so good!

Any way from chips to baked, from fries to mashed, from boiled to broiled…

But by far my personal favorite is Jacques Pepin style formulated by Rachael Ray…

Place the potatoes in a deep skillet and add salt and pepper, to taste. Cover potatoes halfway with chicken stock, about 3 cups, add the butter and cover skillet with a lid. Cook the potatoes in the stock until almost tender, about 5 to 8 minutes, depending upon the size of the potatoes. Remove the lid and allow the stock to evaporate, about another 5 minutes. Once the stock has evaporated pop each potato using a ladle or large spoon, creating a small crack in each, but do not smash. Allow the potatoes to brown on each side, another 5 minutes, and re-season with salt and pepper, if necessary or desired. Remove the browned potatoes from the skillet and place onto a serving platter, garnished with the parsley.
