Instructions:
1. Prepare the Loaded Potatoes:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Scrub the potatoes clean and poke a few holes in each one with a fork. Rub the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake them for 45-60 minutes, or until they’re fork-tender and the skins are crispy. You can test doneness by inserting a fork into the center of the potatoes—if it slides in easily, they’re ready.
- Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Then, slice each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the flesh, leaving a small border around the edges. You can use the scooped-out potato for mashed potatoes or other recipes.
- Mash the scooped-out potato and mix it with sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Scoop this mixture back into the potato skins.
2. Cook the Steak Bites:
- While the potatoes are baking, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak bites with salt and pepper.
- Add the steak bites to the hot skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they’re browned and cooked to your preferred level of doneness. Remove the steak bites from the skillet and set them aside.
