TGI Friday’s Baked Potato Skins

February 2, 2009

TGI Friday’s Baked Potato Skins are delicious. I can’t think of a better way to use up potato skins than to make these delightful baked potato skins. Save the meat of the potatoes to make mashed potatoes or potato soup.

Serve with sour cream. For a bit of variety, try ranch dressing.

    I worked in a rest. in the mid 80′s, the secret to really good pot. skins, fry the skins first. Place I worked used the ends of the prime rib, cheese, and broiled for a couple min. before serving. Never could eat better skins, I do my own, use left over steak.

    I bet frying the skins for the TGI Friday’s Baked Potato Skins does add a lot to the flavor and texture.
