Ingredients

  • 4 count russet potatoes
  • 3 cups rotisserie chicken
  • 3/4 cup gluten-free BBQ sauce
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar
  • 4 slices precooked bacon
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 bunch green onions
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 450°F. Prick the potatoes and microwave 10-12 minutes, turning once, until tender.
  2. Halve the potatoes lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch shell (save the flesh for another meal).
  3. Brush the skins inside and out with oil, season with salt and pepper, and bake cut side down on a sheet pan 10 minutes until crisp.
  4. Toss the shredded chicken with BBQ sauce. Flip the skins, fill with chicken, top with cheddar and crumbled precooked bacon, and bake 8 minutes until bubbly and the chicken is heated through to 165°F.
  5. Top with sour cream and sliced green onions.
  6. Picky eaters can have a plain skin with just cheddar, with the chicken and sauce on the side.
  7. Make ahead: microwave and scoop the potatoes up to 2 days ahead and chill them. Shred the chicken and slice the green onions too.

On the side: Garlicky green beans (10 min)

12 oz green beans

  1. Trim the green beans. Cook in a skillet with a splash of olive oil over medium-high heat, 6 to 8 minutes, until bright and just tender.
  2. Stir in a minced garlic clove for the last minute and season with salt.
