Sweet Potato Skins Recipes

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the top of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Put the sweet potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until fork-tender, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely. (The potatoes can be baked, cooled and refrigerated a day ahead.) Split each in half lengthwise, and scoop out most of the flesh, leaving about a 1/4-inch border all around. (Save the scooped-out flesh for making mashed sweet potatoes later.)
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put a rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Arrange the potato skins skin-side up on the rack, and brush with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Bake until the skins are slightly browned, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool completely, then cut each in half crosswise.
• Arrange the pieces skin-side down on the rack, and sprinkle each with mozzarella, Parmesan and scallions. Bake until the mozzarella melts, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the potato skins from the oven, and drizzle with the remaining tablespoon of oil. Top each with some salsa verde and avocado. Sprinkle with crushed chips.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Put the sweet potatoes on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake until soft when pierced with a fork, about 1 hour. Let cool for 15 minutes.
• Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the flesh into a bowl. Brush the empty potato skins with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Return the skins to the baking sheet and bake until crispy, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the beans to the bowl with the sweet potato flesh; add the cumin, chili powder, scallions and jalapeño and mix. Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove the potato skins from the oven and fill with the bean mixture. Fit a baking sheet with a wire rack. Transfer the filled potato skins to the rack and bake until warmed through and slightly browned on top, another 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, blend the sour cream, lime juice and avocado in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring to break up the meat, until browned and crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off the fat. Top the potato skins with the warm crispy chorizo, avocado-sour cream drizzle and sliced scallion greens.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F Pierce potatoes all over with a fork then arrange on a greased foil-lined baking sheet, cut sides down, and bake until tender but not mushy, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside until cool enough to handle; reserve foil-lined baking sheet.
• Arrange a rack in the oven about 6 inches from the heating element and preheat broiler. Scoop about half of the potato flesh from the skins, leaving a 1/2-inch thick wall around the edges and bottom of each half. (Reserve scooped out flesh for another use.) Cut each sweet potato shell lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips then arrange on the same foil-lined baking sheet in a single layer.
• In a small bowl, combine oil, parsley, oregano, rosemary, thyme, sage, salt and pepper then brush all over potato skins and broil until browned in parts and piping hot, 4 to 6 minutes total.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Prick the sweet potatoes with a fork, then place them on a baking sheet & bake for about 35-45 minutes or until they are tender but not mushy, then remove them from the oven & set them on a wire rack to cool, while increasing the oven temperature to broil.
• In a medium bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic, oregano, rosemary, salt & ground pepper.
• When potatoes are cool enough to handle, halve them lengthwise & scoop the flesh out of the skins, leaving a shell from 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch thick. Cut each sweet potato shell lengthwise into 1/2-inch-wide wedges.
• Add the skins to the herbed Parmesan mixture & gently toss to combine.
• Place the sweet potato wedges on a baking sheet & broil from 4 to 5 inches from the heat for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted & bubbly.
• Serve hot & ENJOY!

Steps:

• Pierce each sweet potato a few times and bake at 400˚F (200˚C) for 50 minutes, or until soft.
• Let potatoes cool then cut in half lengthwise.
• Scoop out potato flesh leaving a thin layer of sweet potato inside, and add flesh to a medium bowl.
• Place skins back on baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and bake at 400˚F (200˚C) for 10 minutes.
• Mash sweet potato flesh with milk, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
• Remove sweet potato skins from oven, fill each with an equal amount of potato mixture and top with cheese. Bake at 400˚F (200˚C) for 15 minutes until the cheese is melted.
• Remove skins from oven and top with crumbled bacon. Serve with sour cream and chives.
• Enjoy!

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!
