Ingredients

  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 350 g sirloin steak, cut into small cubes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for steak)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (for steak)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (for steak)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Optional toppings: additional cheddar cheese, green onions, sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub potatoes, dry thoroughly, and rub with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake directly on oven rack for 50–60 minutes until fork-tender.
  2. Let potatoes cool slightly, then cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh into a bowl, leaving a thin layer inside each skin.
  3. Mash potato insides with butter, sour cream, cheddar cheese, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth. Stir in green onions.
  4. Spoon the mixture back into the potato shells. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes until lightly golden.
  5. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season steak cubes with salt, pepper, paprika, and onion powder.
  6. Sear steak for 2–3 minutes per side until cooked to desired doneness. Remove from heat.
  7. Top each baked potato with seared steak and sprinkle with more cheddar cheese.
  8. Return to oven for 5 minutes to melt cheese.
  9. Garnish with additional green onions and sour cream, if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Leave a thin layer of potato inside the skin to prevent tearing.
  • Don’t overmix the filling or it may become gluey—mash just until smooth.
  • Use high-quality steak for the best flavor and texture.
  • Optional: broil for 1–2 minutes after final bake for a crispier cheese topping.
