Loaded Broccoli Potato Pan is a delicious and satisfying dish that combines tender potatoes with nutritious broccoli, savory bacon, and gooey cheese. It’s a one-pan meal that’s easy to make and perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a hearty side dish.
To make Loaded Broccoli Potato Pan, start by washing and chopping potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Steam or boil them until they’re just tender, then drain and set aside. In a large skillet, cook bacon until crispy, then remove it from the pan and crumble it into pieces.
Next, add chopped broccoli to the skillet and cook until it’s bright green and slightly softened. Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet and toss them with the broccoli. Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and any other desired herbs or spices.
Sprinkle the cooked bacon over the potato and broccoli mixture, then top everything with shredded cheese. Cover the skillet and cook until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Once everything is heated through and the cheese is melted, remove the skillet from the heat and serve the Loaded Broccoli Potato Pan hot.
This dish is versatile, so feel free to customize it to your liking. You can add additional ingredients like diced onions, bell peppers, or cooked chicken or sausage for extra flavor and protein. Enjoy this comforting and flavorful meal straight from the skillet!
Ingredients:
- 2 to 3lbs of Skinless Chicken Breast
- 2 bags of Raw Extra Large
- Shrimp(peeled and deveined)Found at Walmart
- 5 lb bag of red skin potatoes
- 2 bags of Broccoli Florets(Steamable Bags)
- 8 oz bags of Cheddar Cheese Monterey Jack Cheese
- 3 sticks of butter
- Old Bay seasoning
- Parsley Flakes
- Minced Garlic
DIRECTIONS:
Cook your chicken breast in a little oil until golden brown. Season with seasoned salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cut into cubes after it’s done cooking.
Let sit for a few minutes before I cut it up. Cut your potatoes into cubes and boil in water until they are still firm but soft enough for a fork to go through.
After your shrimp is unthawed. Rinse well and season with old bay and parsley. Melt a stick of butter in a skillet and about a tablespoon of minced garlic to pan then add shrimp.
Cook until shrimp are done. Usually takes a couple of minutes per side. Sprinkle a little of parsley flakes while the shrimp is cooking. You may have to add more butter to the pan, but that will be your choice.
I like mine nice and buttery. More minced garlic can be added to the shrimp while cooking too if you like…While the Shrimp is cooking I spread the potatoes in a roasting pan along with a couple of sticks of butter cut up. Sprinkle potatoes with some of the old bay seasonings too.
Once everything is cooked, I mix the chicken, shrimp, potatoes, and broccoli all together in the pan. Top with the cheeses. Sprinkle with parsley and bake in a preheated oven on 350 for about 10-15 minutes until the cheese is nice and melted.
