Prep

Step 1. Pierce each Potato all over with a fork. Rub with Olive Oil and half the Salt.
Step 2. Arrange the potatoes in the air fryer basket with space between them. Air fry at 400°F (200°C), turning halfway, until the skins are crisp and a knife slides easily into the centers, about 40 minutes.
Step 3. Meanwhile, mix Tuna, Mayonnaise, Corn, Scallions, Black Pepper, and the rest of the Salt in a bowl. Refrigerate until the potatoes are ready.
Step 4. Meanwhile, toss Lettuce, Cucumber, and Carrot in a bowl. Refrigerate, then add Ranch Dressing just before serving.

Cook

Step 5. Split the hot potatoes lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Fluff the insides with a fork, spoon in the tuna mixture, and top with Cheddar Cheese.
Step 6. Return the filled potatoes to the air fryer. Air fry at 350°F (180°C) until the cheese melts and the filling is hot, about 5 minutes. Serve with the salad.

Tips

Good to know

If the potatoes don't fit in a single layer, cook them in batches and keep the first batch warm while the second cooks.

Swap it

Use plain Greek yogurt in place of some or all of the mayonnaise.

Make ahead

Mix the tuna filling up to a day ahead and keep it refrigerated.
