Skinny Buffalo Chicken Potato Skins

What’s football without the appetizers. These potato skins are stuffed with shredded buffalo chicken breast made in the crock pot, then topped with melted cheese, blue cheese dressing, carrots and celery – they are seriously delicious!

Remember these crock pot buffalo chicken lettuce wraps^[1]? Same chicken, only this time I stuffed them in potato skins and topped them with cheese. So good!

You can make the chicken, blue cheese dressing and potatoes ahead, then when you’re ready to serve your guests assemble them and pop them in the oven! Double or triple it for more servings.

They even make a great meal, I had 3 for lunch and it totaled 7 points plus and I was a happy camper. Enjoy!

Calories: 82 • Fat: 2 g • Carb: 7 g • Fiber: 1 g • Protein: 8 g • Sugar: 0.5 g
Sodium: 110 mg

Ingredients:

For the chicken:

12 oz boneless skinless chicken breast (or tenderloins)
1 celery stalk
1/2 onion
1 clove garlic
16 oz fat free low sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup hot cayenne pepper sauce (I used Frank’s)

For the toppings:

12 tbsp reduced fat shredded cheese
1/2 cup carrots, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
1 large celery stalks, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
1/4 cup Skinny Blue Cheese Dressing^[2]

Directions:

In a crock pot, combine chicken, onions, celery stalk, garlic and broth (enough to cover your chicken, use water if the can of broth isn’t enough). Cover and cook on HIGH 4 hours or LOW 6 hours.

Remove the chicken from pot, reserve 1/2 cup broth and discard the rest (or save for other recipes). Shred the chicken with two forks, return to the slow cooker with the 1/2 cup of the broth and the hot sauce; Cook on HIGH for an additional 30 minutes. Makes 1 1/2 cups chicken.

Meanwhile, pierce potato with a fork a few times all around. Place in microwave and cook on high about 5 minutes per potato; set aside to cool. Cut potatoes in half horizontally. Scoop out potatoes (I save the extra potato to make skinny garlic mashed potatoes the next day) leaving about 1/4 inch thick wall, skins will weigh about 1 oz each.

Heat oven to 450°. Lightly spray potato skins on both sides with oil and place a foil lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper and bake 10 minutes.

Remove from the oven, add 2 tablespoons of chicken meat filling into each potato skin, top with 1 tbsp shredded cheese and bake 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Top each with 1 tsp blue cheese dressing, shredded carrots and celery and start eating!

Gordon Ramsay’s New Potato Crab Salad

Gordon Ramsay’s New Potato Crab Salad Recipe

Gordon serves a tasty crispy salmon ^[1]filet over this New Potato Salad. Give both a try, and enjoy a gourmet meal which doesn’t take a ton of time to cook.

Ingredients:

7-9 Boiled New Potatoes (peeled)
Olive Oil
4-5 Green Onions
Salt & Pepper
Vinaigrette (see note at end of article)
1/4 cup Chopped Parsley
1/2 pound of Crab Meat

Directions:

Heat olive oil in a large sauce pan. Add the boiled, peeled, New Potatoes to the olive oil and cook briefly to lightly heat the potatoes. Remove from heat, and crush the potatoes with a fork. You don’t want to thoroughly mash them at this point, just crush them up a bit.

Chop the green onions, using the entire onion (top and bottom) and add to potatoes. Season the potatoes lightly with salt and pepper, add the crab meat, and mix everything together. Add a healthy amount of vinaigrette dressing, and then the chopped parsley. Mix everything again, and you’re done! Serve with Crispy Salmon ^[2] for a complete meal, or use your favorite main course to add your own flair.

Note: Gordon Ramsay says during the video that the vinaigrette he uses in all his restaurants consists of olive oil, water, lemon juice, and salt and pepper. He doesn’t specify and ratios, but you can experiment if you’d like to use the same vinaigrette as him.

Gordon Ramsay’s Potatoes Boulangère Recipe from The F Word

Gordon Ramsay made these potatoes to go along with his Herb Crusted Rack of Lamb^[1] on The F Word^[2], Series One, Episode One.

His commies used a Mandoline Slicer^[3] to get uniformly thin slices of potatoes, but used a knife for the onion. You can use a knife or a slicer for both, but try to get the slices as even as possible.

Ingredients:

1 liter chicken stock (roughly 4 1/4 cups, or just over a quart)
1 sprig thyme
2 sprigs rosemary
3 crushed cloves of garlic
2 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped
2 large onions, peeled and sliced
4 large Desiree potatoes peeled and finely sliced (on a mandolin if possible)
salt & pepper
olive oil

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (392 degrees if you have a digital oven)
Bring the chicken stock to a boil and add thyme, rosemary, and crushed garlic cloves. Simmer a few minutes and strain (remember, retain the chicken stock, not the herbs). Set aside.

Add olive oil to a hot heavy pan and saute the onions and finely chopped garlic until softened and lightly colored.

Coat the inside of a casserole dish or oven safe pan and layer the onions followed by the potatoes. Continue alternating potatoes and onions until finished. Don’t forget to season each layer with salt & pepper as you go.

Pour the chicken stock from earlier over the potato mixture until it’s about 2/3rds full. Press down on the mixture to help the potatoes absorb as much stock as possible. Drizzle a little olive oil on top.

Bake in the oven for approximately 20 – 25 minutes or until soft and golden on top.
