Greek Herb & Lemon Olive Oil

$24.95

Ingredients

4 medium russet potatoes
3 tbsp Kosterina Greek Herb & Lemon Olive Oil
Sea Salt
1/2 cup thick Greek yogurt (such as Fage or Greek Gods Lebni, or drain regular yogurt)
3 ounces Greek Feta cheese, crumbled
1 tbsp minced fresh oregano leaves
Zest of 1 lemon, minced
1/4 cup red onion, minced
Fresh ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Pierce the potatoes with a fork and place on a baking sheet.
Bake potatoes for 50-60 minutes or until they are cooked through. Let them sit until they are cool enough to handle.
Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Hollow them out with a spoon, leaving about a 1/4" thick wall. Save the leftover potato flesh for another purpose.
Put the olive oil on the sheet pan. Return the skins to the pan, and rub them on both sides with the oil.
Return to the oven, skin side down, and bake for 7 minutes.
Flip to skin side up and bake 5 to 10 more minutes, until they are nicely browned and crispy, especially around the inner rim.
Sprinkle each skin with a little bit of salt. Spread each with 1 tablespoon of yogurt.
Top each with 1 tablespoon of feta cheese.
Transfer to a heat-proof serving dish. Broil for 3 minutes or until the cheese is starting to melt.
Garnish with fresh oregano, lemon zest, red onion, black pepper, and more salt. Finish with a healthy drizzle of Kosterina Greek Herb & Lemon Olive Oil.
