Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and thoroughly dry the russet potatoes, then pierce each one multiple times with a fork.
  3. Bake the potatoes until soft when pierced with a knife, about 45-60 minutes.
  4. Let the potatoes cool for about 10-15 minutes, then cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh.
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  6. Brush the insides of the potato skins with the herb oil mixture and place cut-side up on a baking sheet.
  7. Roast the skins for about 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  8. During the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the hot skins.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives and serve warm with dipping sauces.
