Cheese Fries Ingredients

Method

Cheese Fries Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fries

    Preheat the oven according to the instructions on the frozen fries package. Spread the frozen fries on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the fries.

  2. 2

    Bake the Fries

    Bake the fries in the preheated oven for the recommended time, usually around 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Once the fries are baked, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top. Return the baking sheet to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the cheese fries from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley for garnish, and serve hot. Enjoy!
