Ingredients

  • 4-5 potatoes 1.5- 2 lbs
  • 1-2 tablespoons oil I use avocado oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • salt and pepper

toppings

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices cooked bacon
  • 3 green onions
  • 1/4 cup sour cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°
  • Wash and slice the potatoes into 1/4" slices (most times I microwave the potatoes to cut down on the cooking time, for every 2 potatoes I microwave them 1 minute then I slice them).
  • Toss the potatoes in oil, line a baking sheet with the potatoes, or create layers in an oven-safe skillet.
  • Place into the oven and cook until the potatoes are tender about 30 minutes, turning them with a spatula for the last 10 minutes so both sides are crispy.
  • Remove from oven, pile on the cheese so it's layered in between the potatoes and it'll melt easily.
  • Top with cooked bacon, green onions, and sour cream.
  • Top it with any sauce you prefer, sriracha, hot sauce, or similar.
