Potato Slabs

These potato slabs is another recipe that I made for the super bowl. It was the one new recipe I made that day. I found this recipe at Amber’s Kitchen. I thought this sounded like an easier way to have something like potato skins and you use the whole potato.
They were exactly what I expected. The only thing is, make sure you slice them in the thicker side. Some of my potato slices ended up a little thinner than the 1/4 inch and they ended up too crunchy. I also used season salt in place of the salt, black pepper, and paprika. I am definitely keeping this recipe.
Also, for those of you in Utah, tune into Studio 5 tomorrow, February 5th, at 11 am. I will be on the show during a segment on chocolate desserts.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375. Clean and scrub potatoes well. Slice the potatoes into 1/4″ thick slices Be sure to error on the thicker side or they’ll end up too crispy).
