Ingredients
  

4 large russet potatoes

1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup sour cream

4 green onions, sliced

½ cup crispy bacon bits

¼ cup fresh chives, chopped

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Scrub the russet potatoes clean and poke several holes in each potato with a fork to allow steam to escape.

    Bake the potatoes: Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and a fork easily pierces through the center.

      Prepare the steak bites: While the potatoes bake, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the sirloin steak cubes with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

        Cook the steak: Add the steak cubes to the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Remove from heat and let them rest.

          Load the potatoes: Once the potatoes are baked, carefully remove them from the oven. Slice each potato down the center, open them up, and fluff the insides with a fork for added texture.

            Add toppings: Start by spooning the sour cream into each potato, followed by a generous amount of cheddar cheese, juicy steak bites, crispy bacon bits, and sliced green onions.

              Finish with chives: Sprinkle freshly chopped chives on top for a burst of color and flavor.
