Instructions
- Make the carne asada as per the those recipe instructions. Marinate the meat ahead of time, but you can grill it while your baking the fries.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees fahrenheit.
- To make the fries, slice each russet potato in half, then half again. Slice each quarter into strips, then slice the strips into equally sized fries.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and add the fries. You may need two baking trays to keep the fries on a single layer. Add the olive oil and spices and toss to coat.
- Bake the fries for 25-30 minutes and use a spatula to flip the fries halfway through.
- To serve, place the fries on a plate, sprinkle with cheddar cheese and add the carne asada. Top with a dollop of guacamole and sour cream.
Notes
- With the leftover 1/2 of Carne Asada, you should definitely make my Carne Asada Tacos.
- And for the guacamole, homemade is always better than store bought. Make sure to check out my Best Ever Guacamole recipe.
