Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C.
- Place the potatoes on a plate and microwave on high for 7 mins. Carefully turn over, using a pair of tongs, and microwave for a further 7-8 mins until they are soft in the centre. Cook for a little longer if your potatoes are particularly large.
- Place on a tray in the preheated oven to crisp up whilst you make the filling.
- In a bowl, mix together the soured cream, lemon juice, hot sauce, smoked paprika and Worcestershire sauce. Season to taste and add more hot sauce if you like it spicy.
- Stir the chicken and most of the celery and chives through the sauce, mix until everything is evenly coated.
- Cut the potatoes in half and divide the chicken filling between them. Top with the remaining celery and chives, and drizzle over some extra hot sauce, if you like.
