Directions
Rub the potatoes with oil and wrap them in tinfoil. Place in a 180°C preheated oven and cook for 30 – 40 minutes or until a knife can easily cut into the potato.
In the meantime, make the chicken filling. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and add the onions. Sauté for 5 minutes or until slightly translucent, then add the garlic and cook for another minute or two.
Stir in all the spices and shredded chicken. To loosen up the mixture, pour in the water and stir until combined
Add the red kidney beans and corn and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Once the potatoes are cooked through, cut a 3 cm slice lengthways down the potato, make sure not to slice it all the way through. Stuff the potato with the filling.
Top with the guacamole and sour cream.
Finish with a squeeze of the lime and a sprinkle of coriander, enjoy.
For the Guacamole:
In a medium sized bowl, combine all the ingredients and mash well until smooth.
