Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 ounces Frozen French fries
- 8 ounces Ground beef
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 whole Jalapeño, sliced
- 0.25 cup Chipotle mayo
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- N/A Cooking oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) or follow the package instructions for the frozen French fries.
Spread the frozen French fries on a baking sheet in a single layer, and lightly spray them with cooking oil for extra crispiness.
Bake the fries in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until golden and crispy.
While the fries are baking, heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 6-8 minutes, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
Season the ground beef with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Stir well and cook for an additional minute to combine the flavors.
Once the fries are cooked, transfer them to an oven-safe serving platter or leave them on the baking sheet.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hot fries and place them back into the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese melts completely.
Remove the fries from the oven and top them with the cooked ground beef.
Scatter the sliced jalapeño and green onions over the top for added flavor and freshness.
Drizzle the chipotle mayo over the loaded fries. Use a piping bag or simply spoon it on in zig-zag motions.
Serve the Tommy Fries immediately while they’re warm and crispy, and enjoy!
