Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 20-ounce bag sweet potato waffle fries
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces ground beef
8 ounces ground pork
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Kosher salt
1/2 cup lager
1 15-ounce can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
Sour cream, chopped red bell pepper, sliced scallions and sliced black olives, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Spread the waffle fries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Combine the chile powder, cumin, paprika and cayenne in a small bowl. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the spice mixture on the waffle fries; reserve the rest. Bake the fries, tossing halfway through, until the edges are browned, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the chili: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the olive oil. Add the beef and pork and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, 3 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining spice mixture and season with salt; stir to coat. Add the beer and cook until almost dry, 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and adjust the heat to maintain a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 15 minutes.
  • Push the fries into the center of the pan or transfer to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Layer with half of the cheeses, the chili and the remaining cheese. Bake until melted, 5 minutes. Top with sour cream, bell pepper, scallions and olives.
