Prepare the Potatoes
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pierce each potato several times with a fork, then rub with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  3. Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.
Make the Filling
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, cream cheese, and half of the cheddar cheese.
  2. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Stuff the Potatoes
  1. Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
  2. Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the flesh to create space for the filling.
  3. Fill each potato half with the buffalo chicken mixture.
Add Cheese and Bake
  1. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the stuffed potatoes.
  2. Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
