Loaded Fajita Potato Wedges
with Fried Egg, Pepper Jack & Zesty Garlic Mayo
- Milk
- Eggs
You’ve had fajitas, and you’ve had potato wedges, but you’ve probably never had either of those things quite like this. Potatoes roast with green bell pepper, onion, and our signature Fajita Spice; meanwhile, you whip up some surprising sides (garlic mayo and fried eggs—heyo!). Wedges are topped with cheddar and pepper jack, then returned to the oven until melty and “nacho-esque.” Everything’s garnished with diced tomato, eggs, and mayo drizzle, then eaten straight from the pan for a meal that's the best of two tasty worlds.

Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Cut potatoes into 1⁄2-inch-thick wedges. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Slice top off green pepper; core and deseed, then cut into 1⁄2-inch-thick rings. Dice tomato into 1⁄4-inch pieces. Peel and finely chop garlic.
• Toss potatoes, onion, and green pepper on a foil-lined baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, 2 tsp Fajita Spice (4 tsp for 4 servings), a big pinch of salt, and pepper. • Spread veggies out in a single layer. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Place garlic and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small microwave- safe bowl. Microwave until softened, 20-25 seconds. Set aside to cool. • Once cooled, stir in mayonnaise and remaining Fajita Spice until combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium heat. Once hot, crack eggs* into pan and cover. Fry eggs to preference. Season with salt and pepper. • Remove pan from heat; cover to keep warm.
• Once veggies are done, carefully remove baking sheet from oven. Sprinkle cheddar and pepper jack over veggies. Return to oven and bake until cheese melts, 2-3 minutes.
• Carefully top veggies on sheet with tomato and fried eggs. Drizzle with garlic mayo and serve directly from sheet for a family-style experience.

Reviews from our home cooks
Love this! The advice to add an egg was an excellent addition! Not knowing exactly how the fajita sauce over the top would taste I was skeptical but it came together and paired so well with the potatoes, fresh tomatoes, poblano peppers, and red onion. I'll definitely be adding this on my rotation schedule when I want some comforting and very easy to put together.
The loaded Beef Fajita Wedges were really good. It seemed very similar to "Loaded Nachos" Very easy to prepare and even quicker to clean up
These loaded fajita potato wedges were incredible! This is right out of the oven before I added the eggs, tomatoes, and garlic mayo. Delicious!
I loved this! Would add more veggies though and mix the fajita seasoning with sour cream cause I don't like mayo.
I loved this recipe so much. As a vegetarian, some meals do not have enough seasoning. This seasoning was on point. Also, cook the potatoes longer.
I like the flavor (though the fajita spice blend was missing). Just a note: when cooking the peppers, potatoes and onions, you should instruct people to layer the onions on top as they burn very easily when lying on the pan (on the tin foil) as compared to the potatoes and peppers.
We like the simplicity of a baked, 1 pan meal. This tasty, spicy, filling potato-based veggie meal, was different, and satisfying. Of course, love the peppers and onions, and fresh tomatoes on top. OK, there was an extra pan, to cook eggs, which I did not eat and yes, my husband did eat both. Really enjoyed this, would've been a whole lot spicier if I had remembered to put the spiced garlic butter sour cream sauce on top of these plates. I totally forgot, but I saved it, possibly for dipping tortilla chips in or making another potato veggie bake on a different day! It was really tasty, we sampled it after dinner while we were cleaning up. Yummy!
Your fajita seasoning is very tasty. A pleasant surprise after me noting several times that (sadly) your southwest spice powder doesn't hardly taste like anything :/
Cook time is too long for the peppers and onions, should put just potatoes in first for 5-10 minutes
I was so skeptical about this selection, but my partner wanted to make it. We both enjoyed it thoroughly and saved the recipe for another time to try riffing on it. The potatoes did not get as crispy as we'd like, but that was our only complaint, really.
