Ingredients
4 medium russet potatoes
1–2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons butter (optional, for serving)
Chopped chives or green onions (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prep the Potatoes:
Scrub the potatoes well and pat them completely dry with a towel.
Pierce each potato a few times with a fork to let steam escape. - Season:
Rub each potato with olive oil and sprinkle with salt to coat evenly. - Air Fry:
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket (don’t overcrowd).
Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 35–45 minutes, turning halfway through.
They’re done when the skin is crispy and a fork slides in easily.
- Serve:
Slice open each potato, fluff the insides with a fork, and add butter.
Sprinkle with chives or green onions.
