Fajita Potato Skins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
• Using a fork, poke holes down one side of each sweet potato. Microwave for 3-5 minutes, or until softened. Let sweet potatoes cool before handling.
• Cut the sweet potatoes in half and carve out the centers, leaving a small rim around the outside of each "boat."
• Place sweet potato boats on a baking sheet covered in parchment paper. Add the bell peppers and onion to the other side of the baking sheet.
• Mix the fajita seasoning ingredients together.
• Drizzle in olive oil. Season the boats and veggies.
• Add chicken breast on top of the veggies, drizzle in olive oil and add additional seasoning.
• Bake 20-25 minutes, or until chicken reaches 165˚F (75˚C). Let cool for a few minutes.
• Shred the chicken with 2 forks and mix together with the veggies.
• Fill up sweet potato boats and top with mozzarella cheese.
• Bake for 5 more minutes, or until cheese is melted.
• Garnish with your favorite toppings (we used guacamole and cilantro).
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Cut the potatoes into reasonable sized cubes. Leave the skins on for extra vitamins and taste.
• In a large bowl, combine the oil, fajita seasoning and the lime. Mix together until it is almost a paste.
• Put the cubed potatoes into bowl and stir around until the potatoes are well covered by the oil mixture.
• Transfer to an foil covered baking tray and bake in the oven for between 25 and 30 minutes depending on the size of your cubes.
• When they have gone golden brown, remove from the oven and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
• Pierce potatoes with a fork. Microwave the potatoes on high until they are soft; approximately 10 to 12 minutes.
• Cut the potatoes in half vertically. Scoop the inside out of the potatoes, until 1/4 inch of the potato shell remains.
• Heat oil to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C) in a deep fryer or a deep saucepan. Place the potatoes in hot oil, fry for 5 minutes. Drain potatoes on paper towels.
• Fill the potato shells with cheese and bacon bits. Arrange them in the prepared baking pan.
• Bake for 7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve hot with sour cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Rub potatoes with olive oil and place on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh, leaving 1/4 inch on the skin. Brush canola oil all over the potato skins, outside and inside, and sprinkle with salt. Reserve flesh for another use.
• Bake skins in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip and continue to bake for 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven. Turn on the oven's broiler.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels; crumble.
• Arrange the potato skins flesh-side up on a roasting pan or rack. Sprinkle the insides with pepper, Cheddar cheese, and crumbled bacon. Return to the oven and broil until cheese is bubbly, about 2 minutes. Remove from the oven.
• Add a dollop of sour cream to each skin and sprinkle with green onions.

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Prick the potatoes with a fork and microwave on high for 5-10 mins until soft. Meanwhile, toss the avocado and red onion with the lime juice and half the oil. Once the potatoes have cooked, slice in half and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Drizzle the skins with the remaining olive oil and grill for 5-10 mins to crisp up.
• Mash the potato with the cheese, fajita spice mix, most of the spring onions and coriander stalks. Once the potato skins have crisped up, remove from the grill and spoon the filling into them. Top with the coriander leaves, remaining spring onions and the soured cream, and serve with the avocado and onion salad.
