Potato Skins

Garlic Shrimp

Method

Potato Skins

  1. 1

    Prepare Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and dry them. Poke several holes in each potato using a fork to allow steam to escape.

  2. 2

    Bake Potatoes

    Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

  3. 3

    Cut and Scoop Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out the flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch of potato on the skin. Brush the insides of the skins with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

  4. 4

    Bake Skins

    Place the potato skins cut side up on a baking sheet and return them to the oven. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until they are crispy.

  5. 5

    Add Cheese

    Remove the potato skins from the oven and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese inside each skin. Return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Garlic Shrimp

  1. 6

    Sauté Garlic

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 7

    Cook Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn pink and opaque.

  3. 8

    Add Lemon and Parsley

    Stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley. Cook for an additional minute, then remove from heat.

  4. 9

    Assemble

    Spoon the garlic shrimp mixture generously into each of the cheesy potato skins. Serve warm.
