Photo: Restaurant-Style Smashed Potatoes Recipe
Ingredients
- 5 whole large red potatoes
- 1 stick butter, softened and cut into pieces
- 1 cup pepper jack cheese, grated
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 5 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 whole green onions, sliced, plus more for topping
- Salt (add plenty!)
- Freshly ground black pepper (ditto!)
- 3/4 cup French fried onions
Directions
Poke a few holes in the potatoes and nuke (or bake in a 400 degree F oven) until fork-tender. Add to a large bowl and smash with a potato smasher.
Immediately add the softened butter, cheese, sour cream, bacon and green onions, and stir with a rubber spatula. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the French fried onions and fold in. Serve hot, sprinkling on extra green onions.
Yummy with grilled steak or chicken.

Excellent potato recipe! I made it ahead and reheated it in the oven.

I have made these three times now and every single time I make them people RAVE about how good they are. They are, by far, the tastiest, most scrumptious potatoes I have ever tasted. AAAAAA+++++
