Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry.
- Prick each potato several times with a fork.
- Rub each potato with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.
- While the potatoes are baking, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak to the skillet, seasoning with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned.
- Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced onions, green bell peppers, and mushrooms (if using). Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until softened.
- Return the steak to the skillet and mix everything together. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to combine flavors.
- Once the potatoes are done baking, let them cool for a few minutes.
- Carefully slice each potato lengthwise to create a pocket.
- Fluff the insides of the potato with a fork.
- Spoon the steak and vegetable mixture into each potato.
- Sprinkle shredded provolone and cheddar cheese over the top of each stuffed potato.
- Place the assembled potatoes back on a baking sheet and return to the oven. Bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes.
- Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top of each baked potato.
- Serve warm with your favorite condiments, like hot sauce or ketchup.

- For a quicker option, use pre-cooked steak or leftover steak.
