Description
These Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Sweet Potatoes are the ultimate comfort food with a healthy twist. Tender roasted sweet potatoes are loaded with spicy shredded chicken, creamy ranch, and a sprinkle of green onions – a perfect balance of heat, creaminess, and natural sweetness.
Ingredients
▢ 4 medium sweet potatoes
▢ 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
▢ ¼ to ⅓ cup buffalo hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)
▢ 2 tablespoons melted butter (optional for richness)
▢ ½ teaspoon garlic powder
▢ Salt and pepper, to taste
▢ Ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing, for drizzling
▢ Chopped green onions or parsley, for garnish
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and dry sweet potatoes, then pierce several times with a fork.
2. Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for 45–50 minutes, or until soft when pierced with a knife.
3. While potatoes bake, in a bowl mix shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, melted butter, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
4. Once the sweet potatoes are roasted, let them cool slightly. Slice each one open lengthwise.
5. Stuff the buffalo chicken mixture evenly into each sweet potato.
6. Drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing and garnish with green onions. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
• Make it dairy-free by omitting butter and using a dairy-free ranch.
• Add crumbled blue cheese on top for extra punch.
• Meal prep-friendly: roast potatoes and prep chicken in advance.
