French fries topped with my favorite street taco and smothered in queso. Loaded fries don't get much better than this. Don't forget your favorite hot sauce.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 pound beef skirt steak, thinly sliced

  • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle lager beer (such as Corona®)

  • ½ (1.41 ounce) package sazon seasoning with coriander and annatto (such as Goya®)

  • 1 (26 ounce) package frozen French fries

  • 1 cup queso blanco sauce

  • ¼ cup diced onion

  • ¼ cup chopped cilantro

Directions

  1. Place steak, beer, and sazon seasoning in a gallon-sized resealable bag. Refrigerate for 8 hours, or overnight.

  2. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spread French fries evenly on a baking sheet.

  3. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Cook steak for 5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Transfer to a plate and let rest for 10 minutes.

  4. Bake fries in the preheated oven until light golden in color, 11 to 15 minutes. Divide among 4 serving plates and drizzle queso over the top.

  5. Slice steak across the grain into bite-sized pieces and scatter over the fries. Garnish with onion and cilantro.
