Ingredients
Scale
Main Proteins:
- 8 ounces (227 grams) maui wowie shrimp
- 1 smoked chicken breast
- 1 smoked sausage
Base Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Seasonings and Garnish:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F (200C). Thoroughly cleanse potatoes, puncture with a fork, and massage with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast directly on oven rack for 45-60 minutes until fork-tender. Allow potatoes to rest briefly after removing from oven.
- Create marinade by whisking olive oil, soy sauce, honey, sriracha, garlic, lime juice, and cilantro in a mixing bowl. Submerge shrimp in mixture, ensuring complete coating. Sear shrimp in a skillet over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side until they transform to vibrant pink and become translucent. Transfer cooked shrimp to a holding plate.
- Heat olive oil in a separate skillet over medium temperature. Sauté sausage slices until golden brown. Incorporate shredded smoked chicken and season with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir occasionally and warm for 5 minutes.
- Slice potatoes lengthwise and gently separate interior. Sprinkle cheddar cheese over potato cavities and return to oven for 5 minutes until cheese melts completely. Layer with sour cream, green onions, prepared shrimp, smoked chicken, and sausage.
- Plate immediately, optionally garnishing with additional fresh cilantro for enhanced visual appeal and flavor complexity.
Notes
- Check potato doneness by inserting a fork; it should glide smoothly through the center without resistance.
- Pat shrimp dry before cooking to ensure perfect caramelization and prevent steaming.
- Use high-quality smoked chicken and sausage for deeper, richer flavor profiles.
- Customize protein options by substituting shrimp with tofu or chicken for dietary preferences like vegetarian or gluten-free adaptations.
