New Recipe: Loaded Fries

I love making this recipe because it is just so simple. Simple to make and simple to serve. Place the sheet pan in the middle of the table and have everyone help themselves to doubles and triples. Yes, it’s that good!

Loaded Fries

By: Charnie Kohn 

1 lb dark chicken stew

1 pack beef fry or pastrami 

2 cubes frozen sautéd onion

2 cubes frozen garlic 

2 tablespoons oil 

2 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/8 teaspoon black pepper 

Frozen shoestring fries

Toppings of your choice

*****

1: Preheat the oven to four hundred twenty-five degrees. Place a bag of shoestring fries on a sheet pan. Season lightly with salt and pepper and coat with cooking spray. Bake for approximately thirty minutes

2: Heat the oil in a pot. Add the onion, garlic, chicken, and pastrami. Season with the salt, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Cook over medium-high heat for about twenty minutes, stirring often

3: To assemble, pour the chicken mixture over the fries and top with your favorite toppings. The toppings I used were spicy mayo, hot peppers, and crispy fried onions

Note: 

1: The chicken should be chopped up very small. About a quarter-inch cubes

2: The chicken mixture in itself is heaven! It makes for a very easy dinner on its own.  If you don’t want to serve it over fries, you can serve it in pita pockets with some rice.
