Stacked Roasted Potatoes

Stacked Roasted Potatoes

I was recently introduced to these Stacked Roasted Potatoes by our friend, Laura -- an amazing cook!

Laura brought a platter of the beauties over to our house for a dinner party.  Thank you, Laura!

What a great way to serve a potato -- the classic side dish!  And these Stacked Roasted Potatoes are versatile too -- swap out the bacon for ham, garlic, onion, mushroom or sun dried tomato. And swap the cheddar for another of your favorite cheeses.

How about swapping the bacon for green chili, top with jack cheese and spoon a little sour cream and salsa over just before serving?

The possibilities are endless!

Enjoy!

Meal type Side Dish
These Stacked Roasted Potatoes with bacon and seasonings are a beautiful way to serve a basic side dish. Top with sour cream and/or salsa before serving for a completely different taste treat!

Ingredients

  • 4 Medium baking potatoes (scrubbed and cut into ¼ inch slices)
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 Tablespoon rosemary (finely chopped)
  • 2 Teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 Teaspoon paprika
  • 1 Teaspoon salt
  • 2 Teaspoons pepper
  • 6 Slices bacon (cut into 1-inch pieces)
  • 12 ¼ inch thick slices sharp cheddar (About 1)

Note

Sometimes simple is best!  The Stacked Roasted Potatoes are about as simple as a side dish can get.  I first tried these when our friend Laura shared them at a dinner party.  Delicious!  The bacon adds so much flavor, but you could substitute ham -- or even onion for a vegetarian spin.  And for a completely different taste treat, spoon a little sour cream and/or salsa on top before serving.  These versatile Stacked Roasted Potatoes are the perfect side dish!  Enjoy!

Bake in 400°F oven until potatoes are tender (about 45 minutes).

Remove from oven and top each stack with a slice of cheese. Return to oven until cheese has melted (about 5 minutes).

    Don't some of the slices slide off of the potatoes?

      I didn't have any problem with potato slices sliding off. My stacks were only 3-4 slices and I think the bacon added some traction! Let me know how it goes for you.

      Tammy -- I didn't have that problem. I think if you keep limit the stacks to 3-4 slices you'll be fine. Also, I think the pieces of bacon might provide a bit of "traction" as well! Ha! Enjoy!
