Easy Cheesy Papa Rellenas Recipe

One thing my family loves that I always try to keep in the house is potatoes. We all love to eat baked potatoes even the Booper will gobble them up. Trying out Pompeian's Grape Seed Oil all natural cooking spray I fell in love with the fact that I absolutely couldn't tell I was using it. My family can't taste this all natural cooking spray and neither could I. Our favorite foods still had the same great flavors and grape seed oil is rich in vitamin E and antioxidants. I've used this easy spray for baking, sauteing and stir fry. For my home made Easy Cheesy Papa Rellenas I used my Pompeian to prep my skillet for the chicken.

A new family favorite and one of my favorites since they're so easy to make. Papa Rellenas are basically just a stuffed potato, so you might want to alter this recipe to fit your family's taste. To make it our favorite way you will need:
  • Pompeian Grape Seed Oil
  • Chicken (3 Chicken Breast or 8 Tenderloin Strips)
  • 4-5 Potatoes
  • Celery Seed
  • Garlic Powder
  • Butter
  • Colby-Jack Cheese
  • Sour Cream
Wash the potatoes, wrap and put them in the oven on 450. Wait 35-40 minutes to start the chicken. For the chicken start by coating my skillet with grape seed oil, next add the chicken and spices then continue to stir until there is no pink. With two forks shred the chicken. Pull the potatoes out of the oven carefully unwrapping them. Cutting a line down the top then pinch the sides to open up the potato. Spreading butter over the tops (optional). Top with shredded chicken and cheese. Bake for an additional 15 minutes on 400. Plate and serve with sour cream. Additional topping ideas: Salsa, Guacamole, Shredded Lettuce, Tomato, or Chives.

This dish does take some time simply for the potatoes to bake, but it's so easy we will definitely be having this one again! Be sure to like Pompeian on Facebook and grab $1.oo off with this coupon! Fill out this quick survey for a chance to win $200!

    ReplyDelete
  91. Our family loves potatoes! We love them baked, fried, boiled, raw, etc. with a lot of different toppings. So this recipe caught my eye right away! I think the only thing I would do differently is to not add the butter on top of the potatoes before I started to add the rest of the ingredients. That’s only because I think it make make the potato greasier and that is would take away from the cheesy flavor. I would play around with this yummy recipe! Of course, my family would be glad to throw their two cents in! Thank you for sharing!
