Crispy Chili Loaded Potato Skins are the ultimate crowd-pleasing appetizer for your next game night! These cheesy, spicy potato skins are filled with a flavorful ground beef chili and topped with sour cream, jalapeños, and green onions.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 medium russet potatoes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • Sour cream (for topping)
  • Sliced jalapeños (optional, for topping)
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Bake potatoes at 400°F for 45 minutes until fork-tender. Once cool, cut each potato in half and scoop out most of the flesh, leaving a thin wall.
  2. Brush potato skins with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Bake again, cut side up, at 450°F for 10-12 minutes until golden and crisp.
  3. Brown ground beef with onions and garlic in a skillet. Add chili powder, cumin, paprika, and tomato sauce. Simmer for 10 minutes until thick.
  4. Fill each crispy potato shell with the chili mixture and top with cheddar cheese. Place back in the oven for 5-7 minutes until bubbly and melted.
  5. Top with sour cream, jalapeños, and green onions before serving.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, brush the potato skins with melted butter instead of olive oil.
  • Adjust the amount of jalapeños to control the spiciness.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
