Ingredients
- 6 large Idaho potatoes
- Vegetable oil, for coating
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) butter, at room temperature
- 1 cup sour cream
- Salt and ground black pepper
- 1 pound sauteed shrimp, peeled
- 8 ounces grated Cheddar, plus more for sprinkling
- Paprika, for sprinkling
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cover a baking sheet or pan with aluminum foil.
Begin by washing the potatoes, drying them and gently pricking them with a fork on the sides. Coat each potato with vegetable oil, place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 1 hour.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and slice the top third off of each potato. Gently scoop out the potato and place in a large bowl. Place the butter in the bowl. Using a mixer on high, mix together, and then add the sour cream and salt and pepper to taste.
Chop the shrimp into large pieces. Fold in the shrimp and cheese into the mixture. Gently stuff the mixture back into the potato shells, making sure not to break them. Pile the mixture as high as you can on top of the potato shells. Sprinkle each potato with more cheese and some paprika for color. Bake in the oven until browned on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

Decided to do these for Christmas Dinner, protein was rib roast, so what goes better with beef than potatoes? They were easy to make, but as far as flavor, nothing special. I was hoping the shrimp would give it something extra, but it didn't come through even though I left some whole on top. I feel it needed something extra like chives or ham or even a little bacon. Maybe next time.

After I saw her show yesterday, she and her hubby had me drooling, and I had just bought shrimp to make gumbo and I had everything else, so I made these for dinner but needed a veggie so I roasted a red bell pepper and peeled the blacken skin off and put strips of them on top and after baking them, oh man that was good! I also chopped green onion....my hubby loved them and said to fry bacon up also next time........I loved the creaminess of these also......so many things you can do with the recipe..yummy thanks
