Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned, ~3 minutes.
Step 2
Add chili powder and jalapeños to the beef. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 3
While beef cooks, fry the fries in a separate skillet or air-fry according to package directions (usually 8–10 minutes).
Step 4
Add cheese and milk to the beef skillet. Stir continuously until the cheese melts completely, ~2 minutes, to form a queso sauce.
Step 5
Pour the queso and beef onto the hot fries. Toss gently to coat.
Step 6
Serve immediately while everything is still hot and cheese is melty.
