Scored Potatoes

4 large baking potatoes
2 Tbsp. butter, divided
1/8 tsp. paprika
1 Tbsp. minced fresh parsley
salt and pepper to taste

With a sharp knife, cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Slice each half widthwise six times, but not all the way through; fan potatoes apart slightly. Place in a shallow baking dish.

Brush potatoes with 1 Tbsp. of butter. Sprinkle with paprika, parsley, salt, and pepper. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until tender. Drizzle with remaining butter. Yield: 4 servings.
