🥩🥔 Ribeye Steak with Loaded Baked Potato 😋✨
A tender, juicy ribeye steak served alongside a fluffy baked potato loaded with cheese, sour cream, and crunchy toppings. A simple yet indulgent meal perfect for steak lovers!
📌 Ingredients:
For the Ribeye Steak:
2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp dried thyme
For the Loaded Baked Potato:
2 large russet potatoes
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tbsp bacon bits (optional)
Chopped green onions (optional)
Salt and pepper, to taste
🔥 Instructions:
1. Prepare the Baked Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pierce the potatoes several times with a fork and rub them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 45–60 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and a fork easily pierces through the center.
Once done, slice open the potatoes and fluff the insides with a fork.
2. Prepare the Ribeye Steaks:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and thyme.
Cook the steaks for 4–5 minutes per side, or until your desired level of doneness (for medium-rare, aim for 130°F internal temperature).
Remove from the skillet and let the steaks rest for 5 minutes.
3. Load the Potatoes:
While the steaks rest, top the baked potatoes with shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, bacon bits, and chopped green onions (optional).
4. Serve:
Plate the ribeye steaks with the loaded baked potatoes on the side.
Enjoy your delicious, hearty meal!
💡 Pro Tip: For extra flavor, drizzle a little steak juice or gravy over the potatoes!
