In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, olive oil, minced garlic, parsley, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Adjust to taste.Assemble the loaded fries:
Spread your crispy fries on a large plate or tray. Add the grilled chicken strips on top. Sprinkle with mozzarella or cheddar, then drizzle generously with garlic-herb sauce.Garnish & serve:
Top with chopped green onions, parsley, and a pinch of chili flakes for a burst of color and flavor. Serve hot and enjoy the crazy-good combination!
