Ingredients

Potatoes:

4 sweet potatoes about 12 oz each
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 cup prepared ranch dressing
2 oz crumbled blue cheese
1/4 cup Franks Red Hot
2 oz cream cheese cut into pieces and softened
1 tablespoon butter melted
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken

Topping:

3/4 cup Monterey Jack cheese shredded
2 oz crumbled blue cheese
Sliced green onions

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Clean the potatoes and pierce multiple times with a fork. Place on a baking sheet and bake until the potatoes are fork tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. (The time will depend on the size and shape of the potatoes, so keep an eye on them.) Let the potatoes cool enough to handle.
4 sweet potatoes
Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise. Remove the flesh from the potatoes, leaving a thin layer around the outside to help the potato keep its shape. Place the potato flesh in a large bowl.
Mash the potato that you removed from the skins. To the mashed potatoes, add the Monterey Jack cheese, ranch dressing, blue cheese, Frank’s red hot, cream cheese, and butter. Mix this together until fully combined.

Stir in the shredded chicken.
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
Add the filling back to the potato skins. Top with the Monterey Jack cheese and blue cheese. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and the potatoes are heated through, about 10-15 minutes.
