Twice-Baked Potato Bites

By mschweickert

Ingredients

• 2 pounds red new potatoes (about 14), halved
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• coarse salt and ground pepper
• 3/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream
• 1/4 cup snipped fresh chives, plus more for garnish

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cut a thin slice off the bottom of each potato half so they rest flat. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss with oil; season with salt and pepper, and arrange bottom side down. Bake until tender, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool on sheet.

When cool enough, scoop out about a teaspoon from the center of each potato into a medium bowl. Add sour cream and chives, and mash; season with salt and pepper. Stuff potatoes with filling. (To store, refrigerate stuffed potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, up to 1 day.)

Bake potatoes at 450 degrees until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Garnish with chives.
