This is the best Cheesy Ranch Potato Skins recipe on the web!!
LOW FAT/LOW CHOLESTEROL/LOW CALORIE
Prep: 10 min
Broil: 5 1/2 min
To enjoy these crispy skins in just minutes, start with leftover baked potatoes or bake the potatoes in your microwave oven. For a change of pace, top off these taters with black beans and salsa instead of the chicken, cheese and bacon.
_ medium unpeeled baking potatoes, baked*
Butter-flavored cooking spray
___ teaspoon garlic powder
___ cup finely chopped cooked chicken or turkey
___ cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
_ tablespoons imitation bacon bits
Reduced-calorie ranch salad dressing, if desired
1. Cut potatoes lengthwise into fourths. Carefully scoop out pulp, leaving 1/4-inch shells. Cover and refrigerate potato pulp for another use.
2. Set oven control to broil. Place potato shells, skin sides down, on rack in broiler pan. Spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle with garlic powder. Broil with tops 4 to 5 inches from heat about 5 minutes or until crisp and brown.
3. Sprinkle chicken and cheese over potato shells. Broil about 30 seconds or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with bacon bits. Serve hot with ranch dressing.
*To "bake" potatoes in microwave oven, pierce potatoes with fork. Arrange potatoes about 1 inch apart in circle on microwaveable paper towel. Microwave uncovered on high 8 to 10 minutes or until tender. To bake potatoes in conventional oven, pierce potatoes with fork. Bake in 375° oven 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until tender. Let potatoes stand until cool enough to handle.
