Hasselback Potatoes with Horseradish & Roasted Red Peppers
Prep: 35 minutes
Bake: 40 minutes • Serves: 8
8 medium russet potatoes (about 4 pounds)
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon McCormick® ground black pepper
1/2 cup refrigerated prepared horseradish
1/4cup ground mustard
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup drained chopped roasted red peppers
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 cup chopped chives
1.Preheat oven 450°. Spray rimmed baking pan with cooking spray. Cut about 1/4-inch off both sides of each potato; leaving about ¼-inch intact on bottoms of potatoes, cut potatoes crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. In 2 batches, gently separating slices, carefully rinse potatoes under cold water; drain and place upside down in 2-quart microwave-safe dish. Cook potatoes in microwave oven on high 8 minutes or until slightly soft, turning potatoes cut side up after 4 minutes.
2.Place potatoes, cut side up, on prepared pan; brush all sides of potatoes with butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake potatoes 15 minutes.
3.In small bowl, whisk horseradish, mustard and lemon juice; fold in red peppers. Spread horseradish mixture over potatoes and in between slices; sprinkle with paprika. Bake 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender, lightly browned and crisp. Brush potatoes with any remaining butter in pan; serve potatoes topped with chives.
