Poutine Potato Skins
- 2 whole Russet Potatoes
- 2 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted
- 1 package (approximately 1 Oz. Size) McCormick Brown Gravy Mix
- 1 cup Water
- 1 cup Crispy Cooked French Fries (or More As Desired)
- 1 cup White Cheese Curds
- 1 Tablespoon Scallions, Sliced (optional)
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Begin by preheating your oven to 400 F. Poke the top of each potato with a fork and place on a baking sheet.
- Cook in the oven for 1 hour.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven and place potatoes on a plate to let them cool for about 15 minutes.
- Once your potatoes are cooled, use a sharp bread knife and cut them in half lengthwise.
- With a small spoon, carefully scoop out about 70 percent of the potato flesh.
- You still want some potato in your boat.
- Get your broiler heated to high.
- Brush the melted butter on the inside and outside of each potato skin and place them back onto the baking sheet.
- Season the inside of each skin with salt and pepper.
- Place them under the broiler for 8-10 minutes until the insides get a bit crispy from the melted butter.
- During this time, make your brown gravy by emptying the package into a small saucepan with the water.
- Mix and bring to a simmer.
- Once the potato skins are nice and crispy on the exterior, remove from the oven and add a few crispy french fries into the bottom of each potato.
- Yes, more potato in a potato.
- Top with cheese curds, and pour on the hot brown gravy.
- Shower with sliced scallions if you desire.
