Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Russet potatoes
- 6 slices Bacon
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Place the potato cubes in a large bowl and cover them with cold water. Let them soak for 10 minutes to remove excess starch.
While the potatoes soak, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until it's crispy. Transfer the cooked bacon to a plate lined with paper towels. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
Drain and pat the potatoes dry with a clean kitchen towel. Return them to the large bowl and drizzle with olive oil.
Sprinkle the potatoes with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the potato cubes evenly with the seasoning.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast them in the oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the pieces halfway through, until the potatoes are golden and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a large serving bowl. Add the crumbled bacon and finely chopped fresh parsley. Toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
