Shrimp Stuffed Twice Baked Potato Recipes

SHRIMP STUFFED TWICE BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Precook the potatoes in the oven or on the grill.
• Once your potatoes are cooked, allow them to cool until you can handle them. (this took at least 25 minutes for me)
• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
• Slice each potato in half and scoop out the insides of each half. Leave a wall of the potato flesh (about a ¼ inch of potato) attached to the skin.
• Place the scooped out flesh into a bowl.
• Add the butter, sour cream, cheese, garlic, onion, paprika, basil and salt and pepper (to taste) to the bowl with the potatoes. Mix ingredients together until they are well-combined.
• Fold the shrimp into the potato mixture, mixing gently.
• Spoon the potato/shrimp mixture into the potato skins. Don't overfill, or they will drip out all over the place during cooking. Trust me. haha
• Sprinkle a small amount of shredded cheese on the top of the potatoes before putting them in the oven.
• Bake potatoes for 20 minutes or potatoes are heated through and cheese is melted.
• Serve immediately.
