For Mexican spiced fries:
-

-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
½ teaspoon kosher salt
-
¼ teaspoon cumin
-
⅛ teaspoon chili powder
-
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
-
⅛ teaspoon paprika

⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper

For ground beef:

1 tablespoon olive oil

5 ounces ground beef
-

Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 425 F. Cut potato into fries that are about ½-inch thick.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, add fries, olive oil, and spices. Toss to coat and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
-
Bake for 20 minutes, flip the fries, then bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the fries are golden and crispy.
-
While fries are baking, cook the beef. In a 12-inch skillet placed on a stove set to medium heat, warm the oil. Add the beef, salt, chili powder, and black pepper.
-
Cook until meat is no longer pink, breaking it up into pieces as it cooks, 5-7 minutes.
-
Place pizza directly on the preheated baking sheet. Cook for 11-15 minutes, or until the crust begins to brown. Remove from oven.
-
Top pizza with fries, ground beef, avocado, pico de gallo, radishes, cotija, and cilantro. Serve immediately.
