I love potatoes, I love parmesan cheese, and I like chicken. This is a tasty combination of all three. I love this recipe for the ease of putting it together. And the leftovers make a great quick micro heat and eat lunch. I do not remember where the recipe came from, maybe a local paper food day page. My family always loved them, and Friends requested the recipe when I brought a plate of these to a potluck. They can be made into adorable tasty small two bites, using small red, or Yukon gold potatoes, and adapted to serve as a small hot appetizer. How adaptable can one recipe be?

    This recipe is very versatile: NOTE: In a pinch, I use a couple of cans of chicken breast, drained. Also, I only use brick parmesan cheese, and grate it fresh when I get home. If I am making a dish where the cheese is a major flavor ingredient, I grate it fresh just before making the recipe. I think it makes the dish so much better. When making them as the entree to supper, I often use a larger potato, and at least double the chicken. As appetizers: I also have made this using small red or Yukon gold potatoes. (Use the same approximate 2 lbs. of potatoes total. Everything else then stays the same!) After cooking, and cutting into even halves, using a melon ball scoop, remove the center of potato, adding all to the mixing bowl. Continue with recipe as directed. Spoon into small potato shells. Garnish top of each with parsley, or anything that suits your taste. They are a hot, two bite appetizer. They can be made ahead and then heated at the last minute! Using a mixture of red and gold makes a festive plate.
