Instructions: Preheat oven to 450* F. Generously grease a large shallow baking dish. Set aside.

Peel potatoes. Starting at one end, cut 1/4 inch slices without cutting all the way through to the bottom of the potato. Slices will fan out slightly. Place potatoes in the baking dish, cut side up. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, dot with butter.

Bake for 20 minutes, basting occasionally with butter from the bottom of the dish.

In a small bowl, mix Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs. Remove potatoes from the oven and sprinkle the bread-cheese mixture between the slices and over the top. Bake 25 to 30 minutes longer without basting, or until golden brown and tender. Sprinkle with paprika.

Serves 6.
