Time 2h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

4 medium russet potatoes
¼ cup butter, at room temperature
½ cup sour cream
⅛ teaspoon salt, or to taste
⅛ teaspoon pepper, or to taste
½ pound cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 30 minutes.
Slice off the top 1/3 of each baked potato. Use a spoon to scoop out all of the pulp from the potatoes and the tops, and place in a large mixing bowl. Set the emptied potato shells and tops onto a baking sheet.
Add softened butter to the potato pulp; mix on medium to high speed until well combined. Then blend in sour cream, salt, and pepper.
Roughly chop all but 4 shrimp. Stir chopped shrimp into the potato mixture with the Cheddar cheese until combined, then spoon it into the potato shells, molding it high. Add any overflow that won't fit into the top pieces. Slice 4 remaining shrimp in half lengthwise and arrange 2 pieces on top of each filled potato.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, filling is heated through, and top is lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

Tips:

Choose Sweet Potatoes Wisely: Opt for medium-sized sweet potatoes with smooth skin and no blemishes. Smaller potatoes usually have a sweeter flavor.
Roast Sweet Potatoes in Advance: To save time on the day of cooking, roast the sweet potatoes in advance and refrigerate them overnight. Before assembling the stuffing, bring them to room temperature.
Use Fresh Herbs and Spices: Fresh herbs like parsley, sage, and thyme add a burst of flavor to the stuffing. To enhance the flavors further, use a combination of ground spices such as cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
Cook the Shrimp Perfectly: Overcooked shrimp can become tough and rubbery. To avoid this, cook them until they turn opaque and slightly pink in the center. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When cooking the shrimp, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and may result in steamed rather than seared shrimp.
Use Panko Breadcrumbs for a Crispy Topping: Panko breadcrumbs provide a crispy and golden-brown topping to the stuffing. Ensure they're evenly distributed on top before baking.

Conclusion:

This Shrimp and Roasted Sweet Potato Hash Stuffing is a delightful fusion of flavors and textures that will elevate your holiday feast. The sweet and savory combination of roasted sweet potatoes, succulent shrimp, and aromatic herbs and spices creates a unique and irresistible stuffing.
