Ingredients

2 large baking potatoes (like Russet)
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup cooked broccoli florets
1 cup cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 cup cubed steak bites (grilled or pan-seared)
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tbsp butter
¼ cup sour cream
1 tbsp chopped parsley (for garnish)
Optional: garlic powder, paprika, or other seasonings of your choice

Instructions

Prepare the Baked Potatoes

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Scrub the potatoes clean, then rub with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
Pierce each potato with a fork a few times and bake directly on the oven rack for about 50-60 minutes, until tender.
Cook the Steak Bites

Season the steak cubes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, add a splash of olive oil, and sear the steak bites for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove and set aside.
Cook the Shrimp

In the same skillet, add a little more oil or butter. Season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and paprika (optional).
Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Set aside.
Assemble the Loaded Potatoes

Slice the baked potatoes open and fluff the insides with a fork. Add 1 tbsp of butter and a dollop of sour cream to each potato.
Top with broccoli, steak bites, shrimp, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Place the potatoes under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish and Serve

Sprinkle parsley on top and serve hot.
