Time 1h30m

Yield 16 potato skins

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium-large sweet potatoes
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 link fresh chorizo (3 to 4 ounces), casing removed
1/2 cup canned refried beans, gently warmed
1 cup shredded pepper Jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
3 tablespoons sliced black olives
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup sour cream
Pico de gallo, chopped fresh cilantro, sliced radishes, diced avocado and chipotle hot sauce, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Bake the potatoes and prepare the skins as directed.
  • Meanwhile, make the chorizo topping: Heat the olive oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chorizo and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Assemble the potato skins: Brush the skins on both sides with the melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Arrange skin-side up on the baking sheet. Bake until crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Flip the potato skins and top with a thin layer of the beans, then the cheese, chorizo, olives and scallions. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 more minutes. Thin the sour cream with 1 to 2 tablespoons water and drizzle on top, then top with pico de gallo, cilantro, radishes, avocado and hot sauce.

These were so easy to make and they turned out great! I used a pre-made nacho cheese sauce to save time, and they were still delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

These were amazing! I used a variety of toppings, including ground beef, black beans, corn, cheese, and sour cream. They were all delicious and the sweet potato skins were the perfect base for all of the toppings.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them with a less sweet potato skin. Otherwise, they were very good.

These were absolutely delicious. I used a little less cheese than the recipe called for, and they were still plenty cheesy. The sweet potato skins were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the toppings were all flavorful and well-balance
