Ingredients

Potato

  • medium russet potatoes
  • shredded mozzarella cheese
  • plain Greek yogurt (80g)

Buffalo Chicken

  • boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced
  • smoked paprika (1g)
  • garlic powder (1.5g)
  • onion powder (0.75g)
  • red pepper flakes (0.5g)
  • black pepper
  • salt (.75g)
  • Oil, for searing

For Serving

  • hot sauce, or to taste (15g)
  • plain Greek yogurt (60g)
  • green onion, thinly sliced (15g)

Instructions

  1. 1Pierce potato several times with a fork. Microwave on high for 8-10 minutes, turning halfway, until tender when pierced.
  2. 2Toss diced chicken with spices. Pan-sear in a lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
  3. 3Once the potato has cooled enough to handle, cut it in half lengthwise.
  4. 4Carefully scoop the potato filling out of the potato halves and place it in a bowl.
  5. 5Add the seared chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, Greek yogurt to the bowl with the potato filling. Mix all ingredients together until well combined.
  6. 6Place the mixture evenly back into the potato halves. Top with extra mozzarella cheese if desired.
  7. 7Broil the stuffed potato halves for 3-5 minutes, watching closely, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and lightly charred at the edges.
  8. 8Serve hot, topped with a dollop of Greek yogurt, drizzled with hot sauce, and scattered with sliced green onion.

Notes

I used Valentinas instead of Frank's because it tastes better. YMMV.
