Hasselback Potatoes with Chorizo, Manchego, and Sun Dried Tomato Sauce

Overview

Chef Robert Bankert's savory dish is named an honorable mention for its creative take on a potato dish. The recipe brings together a combination of fresh lemon, robust sun dried tomatoes, and spicy chorizo to create a zesty potato side. Each mini potato is cut hasselback style to allow the lemon aioli to seep into the buttery smooth potato inside. A fun and unique way to serve up a great appetizer for your next get together with friends and family.
