Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

Drizzle each potato with a thin layer of vegetable oil. Sprinkle generously with sea salt and lemon-pepper seasoning, ensuring an even coating. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Wrap each potato snugly in a square of foil, then repeat with a second square. This double layer helps to trap steam and create that coveted crispy skin. Place the foil-wrapped potatoes in a glass or ceramic baking dish. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the skins are deeply golden brown and crisp, and the flesh is soft and yielding when pierced with a fork, 60 to 90 minutes.

05

Step

Carefully remove the potatoes from the oven. Let them rest for a few minutes before unwrapping. Serve immediately with butter, sour cream, chives, crispy bacon, or any of your favorite toppings! (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try rubbing the potatoes with garlic-infused oil before seasoning.
The baking time may vary depending on the size of your potatoes. Check for doneness by piercing with a fork.
Feel free to experiment with different seasonings! Smoked paprika, garlic powder, or onion powder would all be delicious additions.
Leftover jacket potatoes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
