Creating delicious Dirty Fries is simple. Follow these steps to make your own:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare Potatoes: Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into even-sized fries, about ½ inch thick.
3. Season Fries: In a large bowl, toss the cut fries with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
6. Add Cheese: Remove the fries from the oven, and sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the hot fries. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
7. Top with Ingredients: Once the cheese is melted, remove the fries from the oven. Immediately top with bacon bits, sour cream, green onions, jalapeños, and any other desired toppings, such as guacamole or salsa.
8. Serve Hot: Serve your Dirty Fries hot and enjoy the incredible combination of flavors!
