That is one hot mess of an amazing bbq stuffed potato. I took a million pics and couldn’t get one that looked pretty and then I remembered, Tonguegasmically amazingly delicious food, is not always pretty. But the flavors that explode in your mouth, the moist chicken, the pepper, the bbq sauce and tabasco, the crisp fluffy potato and the subtle creaminess of the sour cream, the hint of sweet crunch bursting from the sauteed onions. You will not care how it looks. Trust me.
You’ll need:
- 3 to 4 chicken breasts
- 2 C BBQ sauce ( I used Kraft Original because I have LOTS of it leftover from my Kraft/Sam’s thing)
- 1 Medium yellow onion, I used a walla walla onion, large chop
- 5 to 8 dashes Tabasco
- 1 tsp to 2 tsp pepper (I have a pepper grinder, it’s about 15 turns or so)
- red onion, diced
- Favorite cheese blend, to your liking
*YES I know I drive y’all nuts with my ‘ishish dabs of this and that’ recipes but, y’all.. the garnishes, that’s all you. HAVE FUN!*
- Favorite Seasoning Blend, I , obviously, use RSS… about 1 Tbsp to cover both sides of the chicken
Season the chicken, put it in a pan over medium high heat, cover with bbq sauce and onions, cover and cook for about 5 to 8 minutes per side, this will vary depending upon the thickness of your chicken and whether you cook from frozen or thawed
Remove from heat once they’re cooked and set the pan aside.
Bake your potato, microwave.. oven, whatever your preference is.
Split your potato open, season with pepper and a dollop of Daisy (holla Meghan)
Top with chopped chicken and the sauce and onions from the pan. Garnish with cheese and red onions.
Smoosh it all around with your fork and devour. Nathan declared this… wait for it.. better than Rudy’s. SCORE!
You can top these potatoes with Pulled Pork or your favorite brisket or fajitas 🙂

Wow, that looks great! I have been cooking my baked potatoes in the crockpot lately. Much easier and it didn’t heat up the kitchen this summer. I usually have Baked Potato Bar on the menu once a month or so, I think I will add these ingredients.
Thanks for hosting!

I was looking for instructions for how to bake a potato in the microwave. Your recipe was the best. Thanks for reminding us that a simple thing done well is a little bit of heaven.
All right, we had this for supper tonight and I was skeptical but two boys, a girl and one over sized grown man practically licked their plates clean.
It’s definitely a dish that will be made again.
*burp*
Excuse me. But man, that was good.
.-= Tanis Miller´s most recent blog ..Who Is Redneck Mommy? =-.

I made this tonight & it was so delicious…..I love how simple it was to make; thanks for putting it out there 😉
Do you mind if I quote a few of your articles as long as I provide credit and sources back to your website? My website is in the very same area of interest as yours and my users would really benefit from a lot of the information you present here. Please let me know if this ok with you. Many thanks!
Hello would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with? I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
Hi, i just thought i’d post and allow you to know your blogs layout is seriously messed up around the K-Melonbrowser. Anyhow keep up the excellent work.
Tried the recipe with Pulled pork instead. Was really good
Hey! This post couldn’t be written any better! Reading this post reminds me of my old room mate! He always kept talking about this. I will forward this page to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read. Thanks for sharing!
