Cooking Instructions for making Cheesy Loaded Chili Fries
Cook the Fries:
Preheat your oven and bake the fries according to the package instructions, or deep fry them until crispy and golden brown.
Prepare the Chili:
In a pan, brown the ground beef over medium heat, then drain any excess fat. Add the chili (canned or homemade) to the beef and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until it’s heated through and thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Assemble the Loaded Fries:
Once the fries are cooked, place them in a large plate or bowl. Pour the hot chili mixture over the fries.
Add the Cheese:
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously over the chili-covered fries. If you prefer melted cheese, place the plate in the oven under a broiler for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and melted.
Top with Bacon and Garnish:
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and fresh parsley on top for a crunchy, savory finish.
Serve and Enjoy:
Serve immediately while hot and cheesy!
