This recipe takes everything you love about a juicy chicken burger—crispy chicken, melted cheese, and tangy special sauce—and piles it high on a bed of golden fries. It’s the perfect “deconstructed” comfort meal.

Yields: 2 servings

Prep time: 15 minutes

Cook time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• Base: 400g Frozen French fries (or homemade)

• Protein: 300g Breaded chicken breast (fried or air-fried until crispy)

• Toppings:

• 2 slices Sharp Cheddar cheese

• 1 cup Shredded iceberg lettuce

• ½ cup Cherry tomatoes, halved

• 2 tbsp Crispy fried onions

• 1 tbsp Fresh green onions, chopped

• The “Burger Sauce”:

• 3 tbsp Mayonnaise

• 1 tbsp Ketchup

• 1 tsp Yellow mustard

• 1 tsp Finely chopped pickles (gherkins)

• A pinch of smoked paprika

• Optional: Extra drizzle of Ranch dressing or Garlic Aioli

Instructions

1. Prepare the Fries: Bake or air-fry the French fries at 200°C until golden and crispy.

2. Melt the Cheese: While the fries are hot, layer the cheddar cheese slices on top so they melt into the potatoes.

3. Cook the Chicken: Slice your crispy chicken into bite-sized pieces.

4. Layer the Bowl: Start with the cheesy fries, then add the chicken, followed by the lettuce and cherry tomatoes.

5. Drizzle & Garnish: Generously spoon over the burger sauce and Ranch. Top with crispy onions and green onions.

6. Serve: Eat immediately while the fries are hot and the toppings are fresh!
