Ingredients

Scale

Fries

  • 4 cups French fries (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning

Toppings

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Sour cream (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Fries: Prepare and cook the French fries according to package instructions or your preferred method until they are golden brown and crispy.
  2. Season the Fries: While the fries are hot, toss them evenly with the Cajun seasoning to infuse them with spicy flavor.
  3. Top with Cheese: Spread the seasoned fries on a baking sheet or oven-safe dish and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
  4. Melt the Cheese: Place the fries under the broiler or in a hot oven for a few minutes until the cheese melts and becomes bubbly.
  5. Add Bacon and Green Onions: Remove from the oven and sprinkle the crumbled cooked bacon and chopped green onions evenly over the cheesy fries.
  6. Prepare the Spicy Ranch Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the ranch dressing, hot sauce, garlic powder, and paprika until well combined.
  7. Drizzle and Serve: Drizzle the spicy ranch sauce over the loaded fries and serve immediately. Optionally, serve with a dollop of sour cream on the side.

Notes

  • Fresh fries can be baked or fried to preference; frozen fries are a convenient option.
  • Adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning and hot sauce to control the spice level.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon or substitute with a plant-based bacon alternative.
  • These fries are best served hot and fresh to enjoy the melted cheese at its best.
  • Sour cream adds a cool contrast but is optional depending on your taste.
