Ingredients
1lbSteak, thinly sliced (ribeye or sirloin recommended)
1tspGarlic salt
1/2tspGround black pepper
1eachGreen bell pepper, sliced
1eachOnion, sliced
8-10slicesWhite American cheese
20ozMcCain Quick Cook Waffle Cut Fries (or your favorite fries)
1tbspOlive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven according to the instructions on your fries’ packaging. Spread the fries on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake until crispy and golden—about 20 minutes, flipping halfway for even browning.
While the fries are baking, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and green bell peppers. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized, then remove them from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the thinly sliced steak. Sprinkle with garlic salt and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until just browned and cooked through. Don’t overcook—thin steak cooks fast!
Once the fries are crispy, remove them from the oven but keep them on the baking sheet. Top evenly with the cooked steak, peppers, and onions.
Lay the slices of white American cheese generously over the top of everything. Return the baking sheet to the oven for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Remove, let cool for a minute, then serve straight from the pan or transfer to a platter. Enjoy piping hot!
Notes
For extra heat, sprinkle with red pepper flakes, or add pickled jalapeños on top just before serving.
