Instructions
 

For the Oven Fries

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place cut potato wedges on baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss well and spread into an even layer.
  • Bake 20 minutes, turn potatoes then continue to bake until tender and golden brown, about 15 minutes longer.

For the Sauce

  • While fries cook prepare burger sauce by mixing together yogurt, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, paprika, cayenne pepper in a mixing bowl.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper, stir. Set aside.

For the Burger Bowls

  • Dab beef dry on both sides using paper towels. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 12-inch non-stick skillet over moderately high heat.
  • Once heated add the beef in small chunks, season with salt and pepper. Let it sear until nicely browned on bottom, about 3 minutes.
  • Turn beef, sear 2 minutes then break beef up. Drain fat from beef, add Worcestershire and garlic powder and cook through.

To Assemble Bowls

  • Top with cooked beef, tomatoes, cheese, pickles and onion.
