Bake the Potatoes:
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Rub potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place directly on the oven rack and bake for 45–50 minutes until fork-tender and crispy outside. -
Cook the Steak Bites:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak bites in a single layer (in batches if needed), season with salt, pepper, and steak seasoning. Sear for 1–2 minutes per side until browned. Lower heat, add butter and garlic, and spoon over steak. Cook 1 more minute and remove from heat. -
Assemble the Loaded Potatoes:
Cut open each baked potato and fluff the insides with a fork. Add a pat of butter, then top with shredded cheddar, steak bites, bacon, sour cream, and green onions.
