Chili Stuffed Baked Potatoes for Cozy Nights

Chili Stuffed Baked Potatoes combine creamy, fluffy potatoes with zesty chili for a satisfying meal that’s ideal for gatherings or cozy weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 2 cups chili homemade or canned
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 green onions chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Wash and scrub the russet potatoes, then prick them with a fork.
  • Rub the potatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for 45-60 minutes, until tender.
  • While the potatoes are baking, prepare your chili if making it from scratch.
  • Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before handling.
  • Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise and gently fluff the insides with a fork.
  • Spoon the chili over the fluffed potato halves, then sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  • Return the assembled potatoes to the oven for about 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and top each potato with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of green onions.
