This one is simple in the fact that it is literally 6 ingredients. Seriously. Just 6! I made it even easier by purchasing precooked and pre-shredded rotisserie chicken which I think I will always do from now on because I hate shredding chicken, especially when its straight from the carcass.
The length of time it takes to make this recipe, a little less simple. Because, holy cannoli…. potatoes take forever to cook! Why is that? This is definitely a “make ahead” meal, because it takes about so looong in the oven. Hmm…. I wonder how much faster this would be in the Instant Pot!?! I might have to try that next. Has anyone made baked potatoes in the IP? If yes, drop a comment… I would love to hear how they turned out and how long they take!
