Lunch: Campfire Garlic Fries

Recipe by Lauren Miyashiro Chow down on a gooey, pre-s'mores snack.

Ingredients

1 (16 oz.) bag frozen French fries
extra-virgin olive oil
kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 c. shredded cheddar and monterey Jack mixture
2 scallions, sliced

Instructions

Heat coals over campfire, or preheat grill to medium-high.
Tear aluminum foil to make 4 large rectangles. On each foil piece, spread out about 1/4 of the fries. Drizzle each serving with olive oil and toss with salt and pepper. Fold each foil piece in half crosswise and seal the edges to make packets.
When the coals (or grill) are hot, add the foil packets. Cook (tossing occasionally to avoid burning) until heated through and golden, about 20 minutes. Open packets and add garlic to each. Toss and let the fries crisp over coals, uncovered, about 1 minute more. Top each serving with cheese and cook until cheese is melty. Remove from coals (or grill).
Garnish each serving with scallions.
