Super Bowl Super Stuffd N Crispy Potato Skins Recipes

SUPER BOWL SUPER STUFF'D N' CRISPY POTATO SKINS

Steps:

• Bake the potatoes until tender (I bought the micorwavable kind, you may bake them though). Let potatoes cool. In a medium size bowl mix the Sour Cream, Baccon, Shredded Cheese, Salt, Pepper. Refridgerate for 10-15 minute Take the potatoes half them, and then fourth them. Scoop almost all the potato flesh out with a spoon, I like to leave a little so it's more like a french fry, but it dosnt really matter.
• While the filling is in the fridge, heat your oil (I have a fryer) to about 350 degrees. Once the oil is hot drop the skins into fryer or pan. Cook the skins until crispy (5-8 mins). Once done place them on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb grease.
• Take out the filling and preheat the oven to "Broiler" Get a baking sheet and fill the skins with the filling, don't put too much or all the filling will come out. Broil the potato skins until the filling is hot and goey. If you want, garnish with green onion.

SUPER-STUFFED BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat, turning, until crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain and reserve 1 tablespoon of the drippings. Chop the bacon.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Rub the potatoes with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on a baking sheet and bake 30 minutes. Pierce each potato in a few spots with a fork and continue baking until tender, 15 to 20 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, fit a medium pot with a steamer insert, fill with 2 inches of water and bring to a boil. Add the cauliflower, cover and steam until crisp-tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer the cauliflower to a food processor. Add the buttermilk, garlic, vinegar, paprika, the reserved bacon drippings, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste; pulse until smooth. Set aside 1/4 cup of the cauliflower puree for topping.
• Slice a thin layer off the top of each potato, then scoop the flesh into a bowl, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick wall. Mix the potato flesh with the remaining cauliflower puree, three-quarters each of the cheese and scallions, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Stuff the potato skins with the potato-cauliflower mixture and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake until the cheese melts and the filling is warmed through, about 12 minutes. Top with the reserved cauliflower puree, the remaining scallions, the bacon and more paprika.

CRISPY POTATO SKINS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and generously oil the grate.
• When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them lengthwise and scoop out flesh to within 1/4 inch of skin. Reserve flesh for another use.
• Drizzle skins with oil and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with bacon, provolone cheese, and green onions.
• Cook on the preheated grill with the lid closed until skins are crispy and cheese is melted, 4 to 5 minutes.

SERIOUS POTATO SKINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Rub the potatoes lightly with olive oil and bake them on a foil-lined baking sheet until their skins are crisp and a fork easily slides into their flesh, about 1 hour. Transfer the potatoes to a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, assemble the toppings. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, then transfer to a small bowl. Reserve the bacon fat. Grate the cheese into a small bowl; you should have about 2 cups. Trim and thinly slice the scallions. (Feeling frisky? Caramelize some onions. Shred some ham or grate some Gruyère.)
• Using an oven mitt or a folded kitchen towel to handle the hot potatoes, cut each into quarters lengthwise to create four wedges. Using a small spoon, scoop the flesh from each wedge, leaving 1/4 inch or more of the flesh. (Save the scooped potatoes for another use, like potato pancakes or soup.)
• Set the oven to broil. Return the wedges to the foil-lined baking sheet. Paint a bit of bacon fat on each, then top with cheese and bacon. Place under the broiler until the cheese is bubbling. Place the skins on a serving plate. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon a teaspoon or so of sour cream on each and scatter the scallions over the plate. Serve with hot sauce.
