| Directions: | Pierce the potatoes with a fork a few times and bake in a 375F oven, on a rimmed sheet pan, until fully tender, about 45 minutes to an hour. It is fine if the skins start to brown a bit. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and hollow them out with a spoon, leaving about a 1/4" thick wall. Save the leftover potato flesh for something else [mashed potatoes]. Brush all sides of the potato skins with olive oil and return to the oven, skin side down, and bake for 7 minutes. Slip to skin side up and bake 5 to 10 more minutes, until they are nicely browned and crispy, especially around the inner rim. Sprinkle each skin with a little bit of salt. Spread each with 1 scant T of the yogurt. Top each with 1 T of the feta cheese. Transfer to a heat-proof serving dish and broil for 3 minutes or until the cheese is starting to melt. Garnish with the oregano, lemon zest, red onion, black pepper and more salt. |
