Ingredients

14 oz. frozen French fries

Kosher salt

1/4 c. mayonnaise

3 tbsp. ketchup

1 tbsp. sweet pickle relish

1 tbsp. yellow mustard

1 tbsp. canola oil

1 lb. lean ground beef

1 1/2 tsp. Cajun seasoning

3 oz. cheddar, shredded (about 1 c.)

8 c. chopped romaine

4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (optional)

5 oz. cherry tomatoes, quartered (about 1 c.)

1 small red onion, thinly sliced (about 1 c.)

1/2 c. quartered dill pickle slices

Directions

Bake French fries according to package directions; season with a pinch of salt.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir mayonnaise, ketchup, relish, and mustard until smooth.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil until shimmering. Add beef, Cajun seasoning, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, breaking up beef with a wooden spoon, until cooked through and no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes. Gather beef to one side of skillet in an even layer and top with cheese. Cover with a lid or foil and let melt, 3 to 4 minutes.

Divide lettuce among wide, shallow bowls. Top with cheesy ground beef, bacon (if using), tomatoes, onion, pickles, fries, burger sauce, and sesame seeds.
