BAKED STUFFED POTATOES WITH BACON, an easy main course or appetizer super tasty, perfect for both lunch and dinner, soft stuffed potatoes baked in the oven or with a fryer.
Baked Stuffed Potatoes are an explosion of flavors wrapped in a paper envelope, a culinary delight that combines the simplicity of ingredients with the goodness of culinary tradition.

The preparation of Baked Stuffed Potatoes is surprisingly simple. The potatoes are baked wrapped in parchment paper. Then they’re stuffed with provolone and diced bacon and baked again.
Cooking in parchment is the key to this dish. Wrapped in paper, the potatoes are baked, retaining moisture and aromas. This method preserves the creamy texture of the potatoes and allows the flavors of the filling to meld into a perfect combination.
The versatility of Baked Stuffed Potatoes permits endless variations. You can experiment with different cheeses, fresh herbs, or even add other cured meats for an extra touch of flavor.
They are a dish that lends itself to being served attractively. Once baked, you can decorate with fresh herbs and present the potatoes directly in their parchment.

Ingredients
- 2.1 oz bacon

Steps
For the recipe, I recommend using fairly large potatoes, about 7 oz each.
Wrap the potatoes in parchment paper or aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 390°F for about 1 hour or in an air fryer at 375°F for 50 minutes as I did.
Of course, cooking times vary depending on the size of the potatoes.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and cut them in the middle, avoiding opening them completely.
Remove some of the inside, add sliced provolone and bacon, season with oil, salt, pepper, or rosemary, as you prefer.
Rewrap in paper and return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes.
Bon appétit
