Blue Cheese Beef And Fries Recipes

BLUE CHEESE FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• 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.

STEAK-CUT OVEN FRIES WITH BLUE CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• To make the blue cheese dip: In a food processor, combine the mayonnaise, blue cheese, buttermilk, shallot, lemon juice and zest, Worcestershire, salt, and celery seed. Pulse until evenly combined but still slightly chunky. Stir in the parsley and season with pepper, to taste. Transfer the dip to a bowl and refrigerate for the flavors to come together while you make the fries.
• To make the fries: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 500 degrees F. Put a baking sheet on the center rack and preheat for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the potatoes lengthwise into wedges by eighths, leaving the skins on. In a large bowl toss the wedges with the olive oil.
• Carefully remove the hot baking sheet from the oven and arrange the potato wedges cut-side down on it, keeping them evenly spaced. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the remaining oil in the bowl over the potatoes (it helps them get crispy). Bake until browned and crisp, about 30 minutes. Transfer the fries to a serving platter and season with salt, to taste. Serve immediately with the blue cheese dip.

BLUE CHEESE BEEF AND FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a rimmed baking sheet with olive oil spray. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet.
• In a cup, stir together the garlic powder, paprika, and pepper. Sprinkle over the potatoes.
• Bake for 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Arrange the beef and broccoli on the potatoes. Pour the gravy on top. Bake for 6 to 7 minutes, or until the mixture is warmed through. Sprinkle with the blue cheese.
• Make fast work of slicing the potatoes for this dish by using the very fine julienne blade of a mandoline or the french-fry blade of a food processor.
