Indulge in a delightful fusion of flavours with our Ribeye and Shrimp/Broccoli Alfredo Loaded Baked Potato Plate that will impress any diner!
Ingredients
4
- 4 large baking potatoes
- 2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
- 200 grams shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- Chopped chives for garnish
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Wash and scrub the baking potatoes, then prick them with a fork. Bake for about 45-60 minutes or until fork-tender.
2
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season ribeye steaks with salt and pepper. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until desired doneness. Remove from skillet and let rest before slicing.
3
In the same skillet, add shrimp and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until shrimp are pink and fully cooked. Add broccoli florets and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
4
Pour in heavy cream and stir in Parmesan cheese until smooth. Add red pepper flakes if desired. Let simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
5
Once baked, remove potatoes from the oven and cut them open lengthwise. Fluff the insides with a fork, season with salt and pepper, and add a generous serving of the Alfredo sauce with shrimp and broccoli.

Pro Tips
Ensure the ribeye is at room temperature before cooking for even results.
Do not overcook the shrimp; they should be just pink and opaque.
For a healthier version, use low-fat cream and turkey steaks instead.
Troubleshooting
If the sauce is too thick, add a little pasta water to reach desired consistency.
If the steak is tough, consider marinating it before cooking for added tenderness.
Recipe Variations
Add spinach or sun-dried tomatoes to the Alfredo sauce for extra flavour.
Substitute chicken for ribeye for a different protein option.
Healthy Alternatives
Substitute heavy cream with Greek yogurt for a lighter sauce.
Use cauliflower instead of potatoes for a low-carb option.
Serving Suggestions
Serve with a side salad for a refreshing touch.
Pair with garlic bread to soak up the Alfredo sauce.
