• 6 medium russet potatoes
• 1/2cup unsalted butter
• 2 tsp garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 2 tbsp parsley, chopped
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 12 oz cheese slices, thinly sliced into pieces about 1 inch square, about 48 slices, your favourite hard melting cheese such as cheddar or Gruyere
• Optional toppings: Sour cream, minced chives, crumbled or chopped cooked bacon

Cowboy Butter

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 shallot, minced
• 1 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 lemon
• 2 tbsp parsley, fresh, chopped finely
• 2 tsp thyme, fresh, chopped finely
• 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
• 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp pepper

Directions

Hasselback Potatoes:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil
2. In a small saucepan or skillet, melt the butter with garlic over medium heat, stirring until aromatic, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in the paprika, parsley, salt and pepper.
3. Place two chopsticks or wooden mixing spoon handles along the long side of each potato, one by one, and use a large sharp knife to slice the potatoes crosswise into 1/4 inch slices, stopping once the knife reaches the wooden rods.
4. Place the sliced potatoes on the prepared baking sheet, use a brush to spread the butter mixture between the slices, being careful not to split your potatoes through. There should be only about one tablespoon of the butter mixture left.
5. Bake for 1 hour or until the potatoes are tender and nicely browned along the edges of the slices. Remove the potatoes from the oven and slide one slice of cheese into the spaces between every two slices of potato. Repeat for all the potatoes, brush the top with the remaining garlic butter. Bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is starting to become melty.
6. Remove the Hasselback potatoes from the oven and serve hot with the bacon, sour cream and chives.

While your Hasselback potatoes are baking for the hour, work on seasoning your steaks with your favourite seasonings then grill to your preferred doneness, timing your grill to finish around the same time as your potatoes.

Cowboy Butter:

1. In a medium bowl, add butter. Microwave in 30 second increments until completely melted.
2. Finely mince garlic and shallots. Add to your butter, stir to combine.
3. Whisk in Dijon, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce.
4. Finely chop herbs, add to your butter mixture, followed by the smoked paprika, chili flakes, slat and pepper. Whisk until combined.
5. Pour sauce into ramekins and serve alongside or pour directly over your steak.
