Ingredients
Here's what you'll need:
- 4 large russet potatoes, scrubbed
- 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded (use rotisserie chicken for ease)
- ½ cup gluten-free buffalo wing sauce (like Frank's RedHot - check the label)
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus extra for topping)
- ¼ cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- Optional toppings: crumbled blue cheese, chopped celery, ranch or blue cheese dressing (check for gluten-free brands)
Instructions
Step 1: Bake the Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Pierce each potato with a fork several times and place directly on the oven rack. Bake for 45-60 minutes or until soft when pierced with a knife.
Step 2: Prepare the Filling
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice each in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides into a bowl, leaving a ¼-inch shell. Mash the potato with the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Next, add the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, green onions, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until everything is well combined.
Step 3: Stuff and Bake Again
Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture back into the potato skins. Top with extra cheddar cheese and place the potatoes back in the oven. Bake at 375°F for 15-20 minutes until heated through and the cheese is bubbly.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
Top with a drizzle of ranch or blue cheese dressing, extra green onions, and crumbled blue cheese if desired. Serve warm and watch them disappear!
