Get ready to elevate your snack game with these loaded steak fries that will make you skip the bar and stay in!
A simple marinade brings a flavorful grilled steak to these loaded fries, and we’re not holding back on the toppings!
Frozen fries are baked to a crispy perfection, then topped with a homemade cheese sauce, sliced steak, and fresh toppings that will make your taste buds do the happy dance!
First, let’s get the steak marinated. In a resealable plastic bag, combine beer, Worcestershire sauce, red pepper flakes, and garlic. Squeeze in some lime juice, add the steak, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spread the fries onto a baking sheet and spray with cooking spray. Bake in the preheated oven until crisp, 25 to 30 minutes, or per package instructions.
Meanwhile, make the cheese sauce. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; whisk in flour; whisk continuously until the mixture turns golden and forms a smooth paste. Pour in half and half and stir until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in cheese until melted, 2 to 3 minutes more. Stir in garlic powder, oregano, and dill into the sauce.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove the steak from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Cook the steak on the preheated grill until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 5 minutes per side for medium rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Place the French fries evenly on a platter; pour the cheese sauce over the fries. Top with sliced steak, chopped tomato, red onions, and thinly sliced jalapenos. Serve immediately and get ready for the ultimate snack attack!
These loaded steak fries are the perfect combination of flavors and textures that will satisfy your cravings and leave you wanting more!
