1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prick the potatoes several times with a fork and place them on a baking sheet.
2

Bake in the preheated oven until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
3

Check for doneness after 1 hour and then every 15 minutes until they reach the desired doneness.
4

While the potatoes bake, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken; cook and stir until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes.
5

Cut the potatoes in half horizontally; scoop the potato flesh into a large bowl and set the skins aside.
6

Stir in the butter until melted and combined; season with salt and black pepper.
7

Stir in the chicken, 2 cups Cheddar cheese, and Buffalo sauce until combined.
8

Spoon the potato filling back into the empty skins. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese on top.
9

Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is hot and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.
