Need a quick game day appetizer? This Air Fryer Potato Skins (with Buffalo Chicken) recipe is not only an easy dish to whip up but it’s so dang good! You seriously can’t go wrong with this recipe and I guarantee you it will be a hit with all of your guests.
Air Fryer Potato Skins
I don’t know about you but when I host a party, I always try and get creative with the dishes I’m serving. That can get extremely overwhelming and cause me not to host parties.
I’ve been trying to stick to the basics but jazz them up a bit.
This appetizer is PERFECT for any party! I’ve served these potato skins at our game day parties, random Sunday bbqs and kids birthday parties. Our guests always love these potato skins.
Personally, I’ve never been a huge fan of potato skins. I just find them to be a little blah and boring. However, my husband LOVES potato skins, so adding the buffalo chicken was a nice way to add a unique twist to them.
Not only I have I found a new appreciation for potato skins but my husband loves that this is a go-to dish lately.
Can You Make These In The Oven?
Yes, you definitely can but I’ve only used my Air Fryer, so you’ll want to play around with the temp and time.
Can I Freeze Them?
These potato skins actually freeze up very nice. I suggest to flash freeze them first, then put into a zip-lock baggie.
Any Ideas On Using The Potato?
I really don’t get too creative with all the potato I scoop out. I will typically place it in a Tupperware container and make mashed potatoes the following evening.
How Far In Advance Can I Make Them?
I really don’t like to make them more than a day or two in advance. I prefer the skins to be as fresh as possible. I normally cook the potato skins the day of the party. However, I do prep my items in advance and will make the buffalo chicken the night before.
Here’s what you’ll need to make this recipe:

- Sea salt
- Yellow onion
- Garlic
- Chicken broth
- Hot sauce
