Barbecue-Stuffed Potatoes

So this was from CL's Fresh Food Fast. Now, I'm going to beg to differ, because I don't believe processed BBQ is fresh, but oh well.

So I liked this pretty well. D made it and I made another serving on Saturday. It took all of 10 minutes to put together and you can make single servings. Was it the best thing I've ever had...no. But was it quick, good, and better than any chain bbq (Famous Daves, Shanes)...by far.

We had with spinach salad.

The home-style flavors of baked potatoes topped with tender barbecue chicken and all the fixin's go perfectly with old-fashioned banana pudding. Top the pudding with some beautiful strawberries, and you've got a fresh new angle on a classic dessert.
Prep: 5 minutes; Cook: 12 minutes

Preparation Time: 5 minutes minutes
Cooking Time: 12 minutes minutes
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 potato, about 1/3 cup chicken, about 2 tablespoons sour cream topping, and 2 tablespoons cheese)

4 (6-ounce) baking potatoes
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 green onions, finely chopped and divided
1 1/3 cups shredded barbecue chicken (such as Lloyd's)
1/2 cup (2 ounces) reduced-fat shredded extra-sharp cheddar cheese

1. Pierce potatoes with a fork; arrange in a circle on paper towels in microwave oven. Microwave at HIGH 10 minutes or until done, rearranging potatoes after 5 minutes.

2. While potatoes cook, combine sour cream and 2 tablespoons onions; set aside.

3. Place chicken in a microwave-safe bowl; cover with plastic wrap (do not allow plastic wrap to touch food). Remove potatoes from microwave; place chicken in microwave. Microwave at HIGH 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated.

4. Slice potatoes lengthwise, cutting to, but not through, other side; fluff with fork. Top each potato evenly with chicken, sour cream mixture, cheese, and remaining onions.
