Who loves potatoes?? ME!! I will eat them any which way you serve them to me 😉 In my perfect world they would be a free vegetable.. but I would probably never of hit my weigh loss goal if that were the case.. So for now I just try and find weight watcher friendly dishes to incorporate them into, like these delicious chicken and bacon ranch scallop potatoes. Easy to make and 7 freestyle smart points per serving.

Chicken & bacon ranch scallop potatoes

By: Drizzle
Servings: 6
Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 1 hour 5 minutes
Total: 1 hour 25 minutes
7 SP Freestyle, 8sp/7pp per serving

Ingredients 

  • 4 medium potatoes, pealed and sliced very thin (I used white potatoes)
  • 8 oz about 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1.5 Tbsp light calorie reduced margarine
  • 1.5 Tbsp flour
  • 1 cup skim milk
  • 2/3 cup light shredded mozzarella
  • 5 Tbsp light ranch dressing
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt & pepper
  • 4 Tbsp real bacon bits

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350F, spray a 9x13 casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • Peel and slice your potatoes into very thin circle slices, as thin as you can get them.
  • In a pan on the stove over medium heat melt your margarine, add in flour and mix, then whisk in milk. Stir often until sauce thickens, this could take about 10-15 minutes. Then stir in your oregano, dash of salt and pepper, 3 Tbsp of ranch dressing (leave 2 Tbsp aside for top) and your cheese, stir well til cheese is melted.
  • Use half of your potatoes and layer them on the bottom of your dish. Sprinkle half of your chicken (4oz) and 2 Tbsp of your bacon bits on top of potato slices. Pour half of your cream mixture over top.
  • Layer remaining potatoes, chicken and bacon bits, then pour remaining sauce on, top with your remaining 2 Tbsp ranch. (To evenly spread the ranch I placed mine in a small zip lock bag, cut of end and drizzle over dish)
  • Cover with foil and bake in oven for 65 minutes. Cut into 6 equal portions

  1. Oh, Kate,
    Thank you for this recipe. It is so good to have a recipe with potatoes and I can’t wait to try it.
    Thanks for all the effort you put into these wonderful recipes, especially those with buffalo chicken! This weight loss journey is hard enough so it’s great to have this place to visit.

    Dear DrizzleMeSkinny,
    I am new to Weight Watchers…I haven’t really cooked in a while. I love your recipes!!! I have made the bacon wrapped pineapple (which my husband loved), the mini raspberry tarts (raspberries are my all time favorite fruit), the meatloaf cupcakes, and tonight I am making the chicken, bacon, ranch, scallop potatoes. All of your recipes are easy for me to follow, I enjoy the creating process, and Completely Delicious!!! Thank you:-)
