# Ingredients:
→ Base
01 -
One bag (1 lb) of frozen French fries
→ Toppings
02 -
3-4 slices of bacon, cooked until crispy and chopped
03 -
Chopped green onions for extra flavor
04 -
Chopped pickled jalapeños
05 -
Shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese (3/4 cup)
06 -
Sour cream for drizzling on top
→ Fry Seasoning
07 -
1/2 tsp onion powder
08 -
1/2 tsp paprika for color and mild flavor
09 -
1 tsp garlic powder
10 -
1/2 tsp salt
11 -
1/2 tsp dried oregano or Italian mix
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 400°F and let it warm up. While you wait, combine all the fry seasoning spices in a tiny bowl and keep it aside.
02 -
Cook your frozen fries until they're extra crispy. You can use an air fryer for this or any other method you usually like.
03 -
Move the cooked fries onto an oven-safe tray. Spray them lightly with oil, dust half of the seasoning evenly on top, and toss them around to coat well.
04 -
Spread the fries out flat on the tray, then sprinkle the shredded cheese all around. Broil for just 2 minutes or until it melts—but watch close so it doesn’t over-bake and harden.
05 -
Finish with a layer of crispy bacon, jalapeño pieces, and green onions. Drizzle with sour cream and sprinkle any leftover seasoning for extra taste.
06 -
Serve right away while they're crispy and hot. Everyone will love sharing this snack!
# Notes:
01 -
This dish is awesome for parties or when you’re hosting game nights.
02 -
Toss on the toppings and serve your fries straight away—they taste best when they’re fresh and not soggy!

Want a cheesy dip instead? Mix 3/4 cup of shredded cheese with 1 tsp cornstarch. Heat 1/2 cup heavy cream in a pan, turn off the heat, and stir in the cheese mixture. Cover for 2 mins, whisk, and warm lightly for an extra creamy dip.
