Ingredients

3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and each cut lengthwise into 8 wedges

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1 cup (about 4 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack, or cheddar cheese

8 slices turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled

2 scallions, white and pale green parts, thinly sliced

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, toss potato wedges with the oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange wedges in a single layer in an ovenproof 12-inch skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until underside is golden, about 8 minutes. Turn potatoes with tongs or a spatula; transfer skillet to oven.

Roast until potatoes are golden and crisp on the outside and cooked through, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven.

Sprinkle potatoes with cheese, bacon, and scallions; return to oven, and continue baking until cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from oven, and serve hot.
