Baked New York Potato Strips and Loaded Shrimp
Potato Recipe:
Jumbo Baked Potato:
Start by brushing the jumbo potatoes with olive oil and seasoning with salt and pepper. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and bake until the potatoes are tender, approximately 1 to 1.25 hours.
Shrimp:
Prepare the shrimp by removing the tails and deveining them. Season with olive oil and a sprinkle of Ashley’s Seafood Secret. Pan-fry the shrimp over medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side until they curl into a nice “C” shape.
Vegetables:
Saute your choice of vegetables in a pan over medium-high heat with a touch of olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until they are soft, usually for about 5-7 minutes.
Cheese Sauce:
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups cream
- 1/2 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian herbs
Instructions:
- Heat the cream over medium heat until bubbles start to form, then add the grated Parmesan cheese and spices.
Assembly:
Cut open the baked potato lengthwise and fluff up the inside with a fork. Add a pat of butter and a sprinkle of grated cheese. Then, layer on your desired ingredients, including the sautéed vegetables and loaded shrimp. Drizzle the cheese sauce generously over the top. Serve and enjoy!
