Directions: Let’s Get To Cooking 💃🏾

---

1. Rinse those potatoes: Give your russets a good wash to remove any dirt.
   
   
2. Poke, poke, poke: Use a fork to poke holes in each potato. This lets the steam escape and keeps your spuds from exploding in the oven. Safety first, folks!
   
   
3. Oiling it up: Rub those potatoes down with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Wrap them in aluminum foil like a cozy little potato burrito.
   
   
4. Bake Those Potatoes: Grab your wrapped potatoes and toss them in the oven at 400°F (about 200°C) for 45-60 minutes, until they’re soft and fluffy. You can use foil if you like, but if you want a crispy skin, feel free to skip it. It’s totally up to you!
   
   
5. Shrimp Time: While the potatoes bake, season your shrimp however you like! A little slap-your-momma seasoning (Cajun style) works great, plus 1 tsp of Old Bay or your favorite all-purpose seasoning. If you’re feeling zesty, add a pinch of lemon pepper. Let those shrimp marinate while the potatoes do their thing.
   
   
6. Cook the Shrimp: When the potatoes are almost done, add olive oil or vegetable oil to the pan and cook the shrimp for about 2 minutes on each side. Don’t overcook them since they’ll go back in the oven later. Set them aside on a plate or in a bowl.
   
   
7. Chicken Prep: Dice up your chicken breast and sprinkle on the spices: 1 tsp Badia seasoning, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp dried parsley, 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tbsp complete seasoning, and 1 tsp French seasoning mix. Save half of that seasoning for later—we’ll use it in the veggie sauté!
   
   
8. Cook the Chicken: After the shrimp, toss the chicken in the skillet for about 2 minutes on each side, just until it’s barely cooked through. Set it aside with the shrimp.
   
   
9. Sauté Time: In that same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and/or olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, bell peppers, and minced garlic, cooking until they’re all tender and smelling amazing—about 5 minutes.
   
   
10. Creamy Goodness: Pour in some heavy cream and stir until everything’s nicely combined and creamy.
    
    
11. Cheesy Bliss: Stir in your Mexican cheese blend until it’s all melty and delicious.
    
    
12. Add the Chicken: Add your cooked chicken along with the rest of the seasoning you saved and a bit more butter for that rich flavor. Stir it all together on medium-low heat for 1-2 minutes.
    
    
13. Assemble Your Masterpiece: Once your potatoes are out of the oven (let them cool for about 2 minutes), unwrap them carefully. Cut a slit on top and scoop out some of the insides with a fork.
    
    
14. Load It Up: Spoon that creamy veggie mix into each potato, sprinkle on more cheese, and top with your cooked shrimp. Feeling extra cheesy? Add even more cheese on top! Finish it off with some dried parsley, then pop those loaded potatoes back in the oven for another 15-20 minutes at 400°F.
    
    
15. Final Touch: When they’re done, take them out and let them sit for a couple of minutes before digging in.
