Cheese and Bacon Fries
Ingredients
  • 3 slices bacon
  • 1 (28 ounce) package frozen French fries
  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • Ranch dressing
Instructions
1
Heat your oven to a high temperature, specifically 400 degrees Fahrenheit or 205 degrees Celsius. Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
2
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches an even brown color, taking around 10 minutes. Remove the cooked bacon from the skillet and place it on paper towels to drain excess fat; then, crumble it into smaller pieces.
3
Arrange the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they don't overlap.
4
Place the fries in the preheated oven and bake until they turn golden brown and crispy, taking between 15 to 20 minutes.
5
Remove the fries from the oven and increase the oven temperature to high using the broiler function.
6
Add shredded cheese and crumbled bacon on top of the fries, spreading them evenly.
7
Cook the fries under the high oven broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbly, taking around 1 to 2 minutes.
8
Serve the crispy fries with a side of ranch dressing for dipping.
