Ingredients
:
For the baked potatoes:
4 large russet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the toppings:
1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye), cubed
1/2 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 cups broccoli florets
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
:
Bake the potatoes:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Rub the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Pierce each potato with a fork.
Bake directly on the oven rack for 1 hour, or until tender.
Cook the steak:
Season the cubed steak with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Sear the steak for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
Cook the shrimp and broccoli:
In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add the shrimp and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Set aside.
Steam the broccoli florets until tender-crisp, about 3–4 minutes.
Make the cheese sauce:
In a small saucepan, melt the remaining butter over low heat. Stir in heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese until smooth and creamy. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Assemble the loaded potato:
Slice each baked potato open and fluff the insides with a fork. Layer with steak, shrimp, and broccoli.
Drizzle generously with the cheese sauce and garnish with fresh parsley.
Serve and enjoy:
Plate the loaded potatoes and serve warm. Each bite is bursting with savory, cheesy goodness!
This Loaded Surf-and-Turf Baked Potato is a hearty, flavorful dish that combines comfort food with an elevated twist. Perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself to something special. Enjoy!
