- 1 packet ranch seasoning mix (1 oz)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- ½ cup bacon bits

- Bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a foil-lined baking sheet for 45-60 minutes until tender.
- While baking, cook chicken breasts in a medium saucepan over medium heat until golden brown and cooked through (165°F internal temperature). Shred the chicken using two forks.
- Mix the shredded chicken with softened cream cheese and ranch seasoning until creamy.
- Once baked, carefully slice each potato open lengthwise and scoop out some flesh to mix with the chicken mixture.
- Stuff each potato with the filling, top with cheddar cheese, and bake for an additional 10 minutes to melt the cheese.
