Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 28 ounces frozen French fries
- 6 slices bacon
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 pieces green onions, chopped
- 0.5 cup sour cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the frozen French fries packaging (usually 400°F or 200°C).
Spread the frozen fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for the recommended time until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through cooking (typically 25-30 minutes).
While the fries bake, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer the cooked bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease, then crumble the bacon into small pieces.
Once the fries are crispy and golden, remove them from the oven. Transfer them to a heatproof serving dish or cast-iron skillet.
Sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the hot fries.
Scatter the crumbled bacon across the cheesy fries.
Switch your oven to broil mode. Place the fries under the broiler for 2-4 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
Remove the fries from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions.
Serve immediately with sour cream on the side, if desired. Enjoy your Cheesy Bacon Fries!
