6 medium baked potatoes
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup Monterey Jack cheese (with or without jalapeno peppers), shredded
Toppings (salsa, sour cream, guacamole, chopped fresh tomato, sliced green onion, sliced black olives, fresh cilantro)
Directions
Wait until baked potatoes have slightly cooled. Cut potatoes lengthwise into quarter sections. Scoop out the pulp of each quarter section ? leave at least 1/4-inch left inside. Refrigerate extra pulp to use later.
Brush both sides of the potato skins with melted butter. Sprinkle the inside of the potato skins with seasoned salt and the cayenne pepper. At this point, if you don't wish to serve these right away, you can cover them and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
Preheat broiler.
Place potato skins (skin side up) on an unheated broiler pan or rack. Broil 3 to 4 inches from top of broiler for about 3 minutes. Turn potato skins over (skin side down) and sprinkle with cheese. Broil for another 2 minutes or so. Serve potato skins with toppings of your choice.
