Chicken Potpie Potato Skins
A Comforting Twist on Two Classics
Welcome to another delicious recipe from The Social Table! Today, we're bringing you a creative fusion of two beloved comfort foods: chicken potpie and potato skins. This dish is perfect for family dinners, game nights, or even as an appetizer at your next gathering.
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Bake the Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub the potatoes clean and bake them for about 45 minutes or until tender.
- Hollow Out the Potatoes: Once cooled slightly, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out most of the insides, leaving a thin layer attached to the skin.
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Assemble the Potato Skins: Place the hollowed-out potato halves on a baking sheet. Brush the insides with melted butter, then spoon the chicken mixture into each potato skin.
- Add Cheese: Top generously with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake Again: Return the filled potato skins to the oven and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the top before serving.
This dish is not only easy to make but also incredibly satisfying. The crispy potato shell contrasts beautifully with the creamy, savory filling. It’s sure to become a favorite!
Tips for Success
- Use leftover roasted chicken to save time.
- Feel free to customize the vegetable mix based on what you have on hand.
- For extra crunch, broil the potato skins for 2-3 minutes after baking.
Pair these Chicken Potpie Potato Skins with a side salad or some crusty bread for a complete meal. They’re hearty, flavorful, and guaranteed to impress!
