Monterey Chicken Potato Skins – your  new favorite appetizer! Loaded with barbecue chicken, cheese, and bacon, they’re the perfect appetizer for your next party!

Last  year, just about this time, I shared my recipe for Philly Cheese Steak Potato Skins – you guys loved them! So this year I’m sharing a new version with you that’s even easier and just as yummy: Monterey Chicken Potato Skins.

These potato skins are absolutely amazing and will disappear at your next gathering. Loaded with barbecue chicken, cheese, and bacon, they’re the very best kind of appetizer.

The best part about this recipe is that it is just SOOO easy. The potatoes bake up for about 25 minutes and that’s just about the hardest part…the waiting. I used rotisserie chicken but any cooked chicken will work.

Use your favorite barbecue sauce to ensure you love the flavor. You could go spicy, sweet, or somewhere in between – all will work beautifully.

I topped mine with bacon and green onions and totally forgot about the pretty tomato I had diced up as well. I ate one each way and I have to say the tomato adds a nice bit of freshness to the potato skin. So if you’ve got one, use it!
