Parmesan Potato Fans

6 Medium Baking Potatoes
Salt and Pepper to taste
Butter, and lots of it (or margarine)
3/4 c. grated Parmesan Cheese (you can use that powdery stuff from the canned food aisle, but I prefer the fresh grated)
1 tsp garlic powder
1/3 c. plus half of a 1/3 c. seasoned bread crumbs
chili powder for garnish

Oven at 450
Spray plenty of butter flavored non-stick spray on baking dish or mini-casserole dishes.

Peel potatoes then slice 1/4 inch slices not cutting all the way through to the bottom, this will make the fanned out look. Put the taters into your baking dish of choice. Dot with butter. Salt and Pepper. Bake 20 minutes basting three times with the butter from the bottom of the dish. While that's baking, Mix together Parmesan Cheese, garlic powder, and bread crumbs.

Take potatoes out of the oven, sprinkle parmesan/crumb mix between slices and over top. Bake 35 minutes (no more basting) until brown and tender. Sprinkle chili powder lightly.

Eat with your steaks and a salad. Yum!
