How to Make Sausage Stuffed Baked Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Bake 4 large russet potatoes until tender (approximately 60-75 minutes).
  3. Once cool enough to handle, cut potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the flesh, leaving a ½-inch border. Place the scooped potato flesh in a large bowl.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (chopped) and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add 1 pound Italian sausage (removed from casings) and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink (about 8-10 minutes).
  6. Add 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, ½ teaspoon fennel seeds, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes more.
  7. Add the cooked potato flesh to the skillet and stir to combine. Mash slightly with a potato masher or fork.
  8. Stir in ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ cup grated Asiago cheese, and 1 large egg. Mix until well combined.
  9. Spoon the mixture into the potato skins.
  10. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup Asiago cheese over the stuffed potatoes.
  11. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. A knife inserted into the center should come out hot.
