Boil the potatoes in a large pot of water until a fork easily pierces, with little resistance. Drain and let cool on a cooling rack until completely cool (about 1 hour).
Peel potatoes and cut into bite size pieces then place in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl whisk together the mayo and ranch dressing. Fold the dressing into the potatoes.
Add the crispy bacon and fried chicken pieces, then stir gently to mix. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped chives if desired. Enjoy!
