How To Make Buffalo Chicken Sweet Potato Skins
Potato skins are a classic standby appetizer. They’re fluffy, cheesy, and made extra delicious with the addition of a myriad of delicious toppings! My sweet potato version is no exception, and I’m going to tell you how to make them.
For The Sweet Potato Skins:
- Halve four sweet potatoes and place them cut side down on a baking rack that is placed in a baking sheet. This helps promote even baking throughout, as opposed to placing the halves directly on the baking sheet.
- Brush each halve with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 375°.
- Remove from the oven, and flip sweet potatoes cut side up. Using a spoon, gently remove some of the sweet potato flesh from the skin, creating a hollowed out shell.
- Sprinkle with cheddar cheese and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
The Toppings:
- Cooked chicken tossed in spicy buffalo sauce
- Chopped celery
- Pickled Red Onions
- Green Onions
- Crumbled Blue Cheese
- Blue Cheese Dressing
