Directions

    To make the potato

    1. PREHEAT the oven to 400°F.

    2. MAKE ¼-inch slices across the potato, making sure you do not cut through the bottom. Place potato on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, then brush butter evenly on all sides. Bake for about 20-30 minutes until the potato is soft and fully cooked.

    3. LOWER the oven heat to 350°F. Place shredded white cheddar cheese in between the slits in the potato, then return to the oven and bake for about 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted.

    4. REMOVE from the oven and garnish with garlic chive sour cream, crispy duck bacon, fire-roasted poblanos and crispy shallots.

    To make the Roasted Garlic and Chive Sour Cream

    1. ADD sour cream, roasted garlic, olive oil, chopped chives and salt to a food processor and pulse until all ingredients are smooth and fully incorporated.
