Preparation Steps
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or heavy-duty aluminum foil, lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
Using your hands, a pastry brush, or a paper towel dipped in extra virgin olive oil, grease the outside of each baby potato and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle both sides of the potatoes with sea salt, and bake for 25 minutes until fork tender.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let rest on the baking sheet for a few minutes before carefully splitting down the center of each potato (slice, don't cut in half).
Dollop about 1 teaspoon of sour cream on top of the center of each potato and sprinkle with chopped chives. Serve while hot.
