Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup mustard
  • 2 cups frozen French fries (thick cut)
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup pickles, chopped (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  3. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook for 6-8 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
  4. Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Add ketchup and mustard, and mix well to combine. Remove from heat.
  5. Spread the frozen French fries evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  6. Layer the seasoned ground beef mixture on top of the French fries, spreading it out evenly.
  7. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture, ensuring it covers the entire casserole.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the fries are crispy.
  9. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
  10. Top with chopped pickles and fresh parsley, if desired, for an extra touch of flavor and freshness.
