Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs
1 pound red potatoes, halved or quartered if large
1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
cracked salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix
6 slices bacon, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place chicken thighs in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Toss potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and garlic together with olive oil in a bowl until vegetables are lightly coated. Add vegetables around and between chicken thighs in the baking dish. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Evenly pour the entire packet of ranch seasoning over chicken and vegetables. Sprinkle chopped bacon on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Place the baking dish under the broiler and cook until chicken skin becomes golden brown and a bit crisp, 2 to 3 minutes

2 slices bacon
1 cup cubed skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons ranch dressing mix
1 tablespoon canola oil
3 tablespoons prepared ranch dressing
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
¼ cup chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet.

  • Stuff potato skins with chicken mixture. Place stuffed potatoes on the baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and golden on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

BACON CHEDDAR RANCH STUFFED BAKED POTATOES



Bacon Cheddar Ranch Stuffed Baked Potatoes image

I've never had any other twice baked potato as good as these! To save time, I will "bake" my potatoes in the microwave for 20 minutes on high. Feel free to add anything you want to give them your own signature style. I use Sargento's Shredded Chipotle Cheddar when I can find it in the store. Broccoli or bleu cheese might be worth adding too!

BACON RANCH BAKED POTATOES



Bacon Ranch Baked Potatoes image

February is Potato Lovers Month and I wanted to try new toppings for baked potatoes. These turned out full of flavor and are very filling for a single meal itself.

Provided by Jennifer Bass @jenniebug1978

Categories     Other Main Dishes

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large baking potatoes
4 ounce(s) sliced mushrooms
1 small bell pepper, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
4 slice(s) bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup(s) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
4 tablespoon(s) ranch dressing
1 tablespoon(s) butter
- salt & pepper, to taste
- additional butter, if desired
4 large cherry tomatoes, sliced (for garnish)

Steps:

  • Clean your potatoes with a stiff-bristled brush and cold water. After you've thoroughly cleaned the potatoes, look them over and remove any bruises or mis-colored spots.
  • Using a fork, work your way around each potato stabbing deeply into it's flesh. 6-12 stabs should do it depending on the size of the potatoes you are using. This allows steam to escape during the cooking process.
  • Dry the potatoes off with a paper towel and preheat the oven to 350°F. Take a small bowl and add just a splash of your chosen oil, and have a container ready for the potatoes once they've been oiled. Then lightly salt and pepper each one and put aside as you wait for the oven to heat up.
  • Once the oven has heated, arrange the potatoes directly on the cooking rack and place a baking sheet on the rack underneath them to catch any drippings.
  • Cooking time will vary from 1 hour and up depending on the size and quantity of potatoes you cook. The skin should be puffed up, golden-brown and crispy, and the potato should squish easily and be very soft on the inside.
  • When the potatoes have about 15 minutes of cooking left, heat a medium skillet to medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of butter and let melt. Add the mushrooms and onions. Sprinkle with a little salt and cook for about 7-9 minutes, or until onions are golden brown. Add the peppers.
  • Once the potatoes have been properly cooked, carefully remove from the oven. Keep in mind that potatoes retain heat for quite a while, so use tongs or an insulated cooking mitt to remove the potatoes.
  • Cut the potatoes open and fluff with a fork. Add butter, additional salt and pepper (if desired). Top the potatoes with the mushroom, onion and pepper mixture, cheese and top with crumbled bacon pieces.
  • Place on a microwavable plate and microwave in intervals of 30 seconds until the cheese has melted.
  • Add ranch dressing and additional cheese if desired. Garnish with cherry tomatoes that have been halved, if desired.
