Blue Cheese French Fries Recipe

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spread French fries in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden and crisp 24 to 34 minutes.

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat; cook and stir until evenly browned about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels reserving some of the bacon grease in the skillet. Slice into 1/4-inch strips.

Stir butter into the bacon grease and set skillet over medium heat; add scallions and garlic. Cook and stir until scallions are soft and browning about 5 minutes. Add blue cheese; cook and stir with a spatula until cheese is melted 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in half-and-half until sauce is smooth 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for 2 minutes.

Arrange fries on a plate and drizzle sauce over fries. Sprinkle bacon strips on top.
