Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 baked potatoes
Filling
- 1 cup leftover steak, diced
- 2 tablespoons garlic butter
- 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1/4 cup crispy crumbled bacon
Toppings
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare Potatoes: Split the baked potatoes lengthwise and add the garlic butter inside each potato. Use a fork to fluff the potato flesh gently, mixing the butter evenly throughout.
- Add Filling: Top the fluffed potatoes with the diced leftover steak, followed by the crumbled crispy bacon and sprinkle the sharp cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake to Melt Cheese: Place the stuffed potatoes in a preheated oven and bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until the cheddar cheese melts completely and the steak is heated through thoroughly.
- Finish and Serve: Remove the potatoes from the oven and top each with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy the flavorful loaded baked potatoes.
Notes
- Use leftover steak to save time; you can substitute with grilled or cooked fresh steak if preferred.
- For extra cheesy potatoes, add more cheddar or mix types of cheese like mozzarella and Monterey Jack.
- If desired, add jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy kick.
- Use plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a healthier alternative.
- Make sure potatoes are fully baked before stuffing for best texture.
