Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Prepare a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Add potatoes to a large pot. Fill with enough water to cover the potatoes by 1 inch. Stir in a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for about 20 minutes until potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork. Strain and set aside.
- Place potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet. Press down on the center of each potato with a masher, fork, or the greased bottom of a glass until it splits open. Drizzle each potato with the olive oil. Sprinkle potatoes evenly with herbs, garlic, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
- Bake for 20 minutes, until tops turn golden brown and the skins are slightly crispy. Remove from heat and serve warm.
