Bake one side for about 8 minutes and remove from the oven. Flip the potato slices and bake for another 8 minutes.
When the potato slices are done, get them off the oven and add a dot (or more, depending on your taste) of hot sauce on each slice.
Top each slice with shredded cheddar cheese and wait for a few minutes until the cheese has melted.
