Cooking Steps

Microwave Potatoes
1
  • Adjust racks to top and middle positions and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Using a fork, prick potatoes all over. Wrap each potato in damp paper towels and place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, flipping halfway through, until potatoes are slightly softened, 7-8 minutes (14-16 minutes for 4 servings).

Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, dice tomato into ½-inch pieces. Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if necessary. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.

  • Place tomato in a small bowl; lightly season with salt. Set aside until ready to serve.

  • Gently crush tortilla chips in their bag.

Roast Potatoes
3
  • Carefully cut a lengthwise slit into each microwaved potato, stopping about three-quarters of the way through. (TIP: Make sure potatoes are still in one piece so you can easily wrap with foil before roasting.)

  • Place each potato in the center of a piece of foil; drizzle with 1 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap with foil and place on a baking sheet.

  • Roast on top rack until fork-tender, 20-22 minutes (22-25 minutes for 4 servings).

Roast Broccoli
4
  • Meanwhile, on a second baking sheet, toss broccoli with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on middle rack until lightly browned and tender, 15-20 minutes.

Cook Beef
5
  • While veggies roast, heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot (medium pot for 4 servings) over medium-high heat. Add beef* and scallion whites; season with salt and pepper.

  • Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. (TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pot, carefully pour it out.)

Make Chili
6
  • Add Southwest Spice Blend, stock concentrate, and tomato paste to pot with beef. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds.

  • Stir in ½ cup water (1 cup for 4 servings). Reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated, 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat; cover to keep warm.

Finish & Serve
7
  • Carefully remove potatoes from foil. Halve lengthwise; fluff insides with a fork. Top each with 1 TBSP butter and sprinkle with salt.

  • Serve potatoes, chili, broccoli, cheddar, tomato, crushed tortilla chips, sour cream, and scallion greens family style.

Review summary

Updated on Sep 2026
  • Flavor: The beef chili topping was well-seasoned and flavorful; some felt it leaned more taco-spiced than traditional chili and would benefit from adding beans.
  • Ease of prep: The recipe involves several simultaneous steps — microwaving potatoes, roasting broccoli, and making chili at once — which some found a bit hectic, though the overall process was manageable.
  • Suggestions: Add black beans or pinto beans to the chili for a heartier, more traditional flavor 🍲. Baking the potatoes in the oven for about an hour instead of microwaving then roasting produced better results for some; potatoes may also need more time than the recipe states to become fully tender.
  • Leftovers: The chili kept well and made great leftovers — one customer's family used it the next day for smothered hot dogs.
  • Toppings: Broccoli as a topping divided opinion; several customers skipped it or swapped it for something else, while the tortilla chip crunch and scallions were broadly enjoyed.

We had green beans instead of broccoli in our bag. I roasted them with salt and pepper and added lemon zest and they were a tasty treat. The chili was really tasty and the way we cooked the potatoes made them perfect! Love this. Great idea!

This is the second time we ordered this meal, and I tweaked the recipe somewhat, leaving out the broccoli and the corn chips cause they were superfluous. But the beef chili topping was delicious and I'm looking forward to having it again someday soon.

We baked the potatoes for an hour rather than do the microwave-bake thing. I think it wound up better, even though it was more time consuming.

The potatoes are extremely delicious. The ingredients we made to top on the potatoes were perfect. Me and my family thoroughly enjoyed such an amazing cuisine. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves a good baked potato once in a while. Very fulfilling even though I went for seconds!

I did not care for the broccoli on my chili baked potato. It did not pair well with the other ingredients and looked out of place. Otherwise the meal was great!

This is definitely going to be one of my favorites! I cooked the tomatoes in with the beef sauce which gave it more of a chili flavor

This was pretty fun and good yummy ingredients. The kids don't love potatoes but this was fairly easy and the ingredients were perfect.
