Saturday night I made baked/jacket potatoes topped with season diced chicken smothered in a cheesy beer sauce. Pure comfort made simple.
Make your bake/jacket potatoes how you normal do. While the potatoes are baking you can cook and season two chicken breasts in a pan. Dice when finished cooking. Line a baking dish with parchment paper. Take the potatoes and cut them length wise, making sure not the cut all the way through. Open the potatoes and place them in a row. Top with the seasoned chicken.
In a sauce pan add a good pat of butter and let it melt. When the butter has melted add about a few shakes of Worcestershire sauce. Add about 2 teaspoons of mustard. Then add about 8 teaspoons plus one for the pot of Guinness. Stir to combined. Add about 160 grams of extra strong old cheese. Letting the cheese melt. While this is happening turn the oven on to broil. Once the cheese has melted and bubbling and the sauce has thickened, pour it over the chicken and potatoes. Then place in the oven under the broil until the sauce is bubbling, things are getting crisp and there is a slight browning of the potatoes and chicken. Ensuring the sauce is still a bit runny. Serve immediately.
This recipe is for 4 potatoes so adjust your sauce measurements according to the number of potatoes you are making. - JW
