Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bag of kettle-cooked potato chips (about 8 oz)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a cheese blend)
- 1/2 cup cooked bacon (crumbled)
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup green onions (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for drizzling)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chips: Arrange the kettle-cooked potato chips in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Make sure they’re spread out and not overlapping for even coverage.
- Add Cheese and Bacon: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously over the chips. Top with crumbled bacon pieces.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the loaded chips in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish: Remove from the oven and drizzle with sour cream. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and fresh parsley for a burst of color and flavor. Optionally, you can season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Serve: Serve the loaded crispy potato chips hot and enjoy immediately
Notes
- If you like more toppings, you can add jalapeños, diced tomatoes, or even a drizzle of ranch dressing.
- For an even crispier chip, bake the chips for a few extra minutes, but keep an eye on them to avoid burning.
- You can also use different types of cheese like mozzarella or pepper jack for a twist.
