Hasselback Potatoes

By Resk8r

Ingredients

• 2 large russet baking potatoes, scrubbed
• 2 tbsp. Butter melted
• 1/2 tap salt
• 1/4 tap black pepper
• 1/2 c shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Cut off a thin slice of each potato lengthwise to create an even base for potato to rest on. Carefully cut verticals slits in each potato approximately every 1/8 inch about three-fourths of the way deep through each potato. Microwave potatoes on HIGH for 5 minutes, flipping potatoes halfway through.
Drizzle butter over each potato. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Prepare grill for indirect cooking to high heat. Place potatoes over cool side of grill; cover and cook until soft in the center and crisp around the edges, about 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from grill and top with shredded cheese
