Ingredients

🥔 2 large baked potatoes
🧈 2 tablespoons butter
🧀 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
🥩 150g steak, cooked and diced
🍗 150g chicken, cooked and diced
🍅 1 cup creamy sauce with chopped tomatoes (such as a mixture of sour cream, mayo, and diced tomatoes)

Instructions

1- Prepare the Potatoes:

• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Ensure your potatoes have been pre-baked. If not, bake them until they're tender, about 45-60 minutes, before assembling.

2- Slice and Season:

• Once baked, carefully slice each potato open lengthwise to create an opening. Gently fluff the insides with a fork.

3- Butter and Cheese Layer:

• Place 1 tablespoon of butter inside each potato.
• Add 1/2 cup of shredded cheese on top of the butter, allowing it to melt slightly from the potato's heat.

4- Add Proteins:

• Evenly distribute the diced steak and chicken over the cheese layer.

5- Sauce It Up:

• Generously spoon the creamy tomato sauce over the steak and chicken, ensuring an even coat.

6- Final Bake:

• Place the assembled potatoes back in the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.

7- Serve:

• Carefully remove potatoes from the oven. Serve hot, garnished with extra chopped tomatoes or fresh herbs if desired.
