Ingredients

Scale

2 large russet potatoes
• 1/2 lb steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
• 8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 cup broccoli florets, steamed
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Salt & black pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

  • Bake the Potatoes:
    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
    Prick potatoes with a fork and bake for 45–50 minutes until fork-tender.
    Slice open and fluff the insides with a fork.

  • Cook the Steak & Shrimp:
    Season steak and shrimp with salt and pepper.
    In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat olive oil.
    Sear steak bites for 3–4 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove from pan.
    In the same skillet, cook shrimp for 1–2 minutes per side until pink and opaque.

  • Make the Cheddar Sauce:
    In a small saucepan, melt butter.
    Add heavy cream and bring to a light simmer.
    Stir in cheddar cheese and whisk until smooth and melted.

  • Assemble the Loaded Potatoes:
    Top each potato with steak, shrimp, and steamed broccoli.
    Drizzle generously with cheddar cheese sauce.
    Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.


Notes

Swap out cheddar for Monterey Jack or pepper jack for a flavor twist.
• Add a dollop of sour cream or crispy bacon for extra indulgence.
• For a lighter version, use Greek yogurt in place of heavy cream.
• Can be served as a main or split as a hearty side dish.
