Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

frozen or fresh French fries
olive oil
boneless, skinless chicken breast
Cajun seasoning
salt
black pepper
ranch dressing
hot sauce
honey
garlic powder
shredded cheese
green onions

Directions

I start by cooking the fries according to package directions or baking them in the oven until golden and crispy.

While the fries cook, I cut the chicken into small bite-sized pieces. I heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, season the chicken with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper, and cook it until fully cooked and nicely browned.

In a small bowl, I mix the ranch dressing, hot sauce, honey, and garlic powder until smooth. Once the fries are done, I spread them out on a serving platter, top them with the cooked chicken, and drizzle the sauce generously over everything.

I finish by sprinkling shredded cheese over the top and place the fries back in the oven for a few minutes until the cheese melts. I garnish with green onions before serving.

Servings and Timing

I usually get about 4 servings from this recipe.
Prep time: 10 minutes

Variations

I sometimes use grilled or air-fried chicken for a lighter option. When I want extra heat, I add more hot sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper. I also enjoy adding jalapeños or swapping the fries for waffle fries.

Storage/Reheating

I store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When reheating, I use the oven or air fryer so the fries stay crispy and the chicken warms evenly. Louisiana Voodoo Fries with Chicken

FAQs

Can I use chicken thighs instead of breast?

I can use either, and chicken thighs stay especially juicy and flavorful.

Is this dish very spicy?

I find it moderately spicy, but I can easily control the heat by adjusting the hot sauce.

Can I make the sauce ahead of time?

I often make the sauce ahead and store it in the fridge to save time.

What cheese works best?

I like using a shredded blend that melts well, such as cheddar or mozzarella.

Can I make this a full meal?

I already find it filling, but I sometimes serve it with a simple salad on the side.

Conclusion

I enjoy these Louisiana Voodoo Fries with Chicken because they’re crispy, spicy, and loaded with flavor. It’s a fun, satisfying dish I like making when I want something bold and comforting without much effort.
