Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 small Onion
- 0.5 cup BBQ sauce
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and cut them into evenly sized fries or wedges.
Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. Toss with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until well coated.
Spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
While the fries bake, finely chop the onion and set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook for 3-4 minutes, breaking it apart as it browns.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the onion softens and the beef is fully browned.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet, then stir in the BBQ sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, letting the mixture bubble slightly. Set aside.
Once the fries are ready, transfer them to an oven-safe serving dish or keep them on the baking sheet.
Spoon the BBQ ground beef mixture evenly over the fries.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top and return the dish to the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
