How to make it
-
Preheat oven to 400° Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scrub the small potatoes clean, then pierce each with a fork. Toss with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Arrange potatoes on the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Let cool slightly.
-
Cut each potato in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out some of the centers, leaving about ¼ inch of potato flesh inside. Place skins cut-side up on the baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes to crisp up.
-
Sprinkle most of the shredded cheese inside each potato skin, reserving some for the top. In a small bowl, mix ground beef with Lee Kum Kee Chili Garlic Sauce and black beans. Spoon the mixture evenly over the cheese.
-
Top with remaining shredded cheese and return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Top with diced tomatoes, black olives and a drizzle of sour cream. Garnish with additional Lee Kum Kee Chili Garlic Sauce and sliced green onion. Serve immediately and enjoy!
