potato potato!!!

wanted something akin to potato chips for our chicken dinner but was weary of frying because first I was hungry and wanted something fast - frying takes soo much time and second I didn't want any more oil into our meal so I made these:

Hasselback Potato
Ingredients:
2 large potatoes
salt
pepper
butter

How to:
- slice washed potatoes across without going all the way through about a quarter of inch apart
- microwave potatoes on high for 15-20 minutes depending on your oven wattage or until fork tender
- smear with butter and season with salt and pepper
- bake a few minutes in a 375 degree oven until tops are nicely browned

 
 perfect with southern fried chicken!!!
You can bake it directly in the oven, seasoning between two or three intervals if you have time, but microwaving it saves time so you can get to your chicken dinner faster!
