Instructions
- Prepare the Baked Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and dry the potatoes, then prick them with a fork. Rub each potato with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake directly on the oven rack for 45-60 minutes, or until tender. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. - Cook the Maui Wowie Shrimp:
In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, sriracha, minced garlic, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side, or until pink and opaque. Remove from heat and set aside. - Prepare the Smoked Chicken & Sausage:
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced sausage and cook until browned. Add the shredded smoked chicken and season with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through. - Assemble the Loaded Baked Potatoes:
Cut a slit down the center of each baked potato and gently squeeze to fluff the insides. Top each potato with shredded cheddar cheese and return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven and layer on the sour cream, green onions, Maui Wowie shrimp, smoked chicken, and sausage. - Serve:
Serve the loaded baked potatoes immediately, garnished with additional chopped cilantro if desired.
