Steps:

• Toppings: Chunky chili, grated longhorn cheddar, chopped onion, sour cream and hot sauce
• How to Make Classic Potato Skins:
• Pierce 4 large russet potatoes with a fork. Bake directly on the oven rack at 350 degrees until tender, about 1 hour. Let cool, then quarter lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a 1/4-inch shell. Brush both sides with melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Bake, skin-side up, at 450 degrees until crisp, about 15 minutes. Add your favorite team toppings. (For cheesy skins, flip the baked shells over before topping, sprinkle with 1 cup grated cheddar cheese and bake an extra 5 minutes.)

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the baking potatoes on a baking tray. Prick all over with a fork and rub with a little oil. Cook potatoes in oven for 1 hr until golden and cooked all the way through. Remove from oven. Allow potatoes to cool for 15 mins.
• While potatoes are cooking, heat 1 tsp oil in a medium frying pan and fry the bacon for 5-8 mins until crisp. Leave to cool, then transfer to a board and finely chop.
• Cut the slightly cooled potatoes in half and scoop the flesh from the skin into a large bowl, leaving a little around the edges. Put the skins back on the baking tray, scooped side up.
• Mash the potato flesh and soured cream together using a fork or masher. Stir in the cooled bacon, most of the spring onion or chives and half of the cheddar. Season to taste.
• Divide the potato mixture evenly between the cavities of the potato skins. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar over each filled potato half. Return the potatoes to the oven for 20 mins until golden and bubbling.
• Sprinkle over the remaining spring onion or chives and serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Rub the outside of each of the clean and dried potatoes with 1 ½ tbsp. of the canola oil. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender. Allow the potatoes to cool until they can be handled.
• While the potatoes are cooling, cook the beef franks according to the package directions & then slice into rounds. Heat the chili according to the package directions. Set aside.
• Cut each potato in half lengthwise, and scoop out the inside of each potato half leaving a sturdy shell for the toppings. Brush the insides and outsides of the potato skins with the remaining 1 ½ tbsp. of canola oil. Place the skins face-down and bake for an additional 5-6 minutes to get the skins nice & crispy.
• Remove from the oven and then fill each potato skin with 3-4 slices of the beef franks, 1 ½ tbsp. of the heated hot dog chili, and about 1 ½ tbsp. of the shredded cheddar cheese. Return to the oven and bake an additional 3-4 minutes, or just until the cheese is melted & gooey.
• Serve immediately with your favorite chili cheese dog condiments on the side (onions, mustard, & coleslaw) & allow guests to top their own potato skins with the additional condiments, if desired.
• Enjoy!
