I don’t know when my love affair with potatoes began, but I am deeply in love with them. Potatoes are not only simple, but a must have on your St. Patrick’s Day Dinner Menu. I made these potatoes last night for dinner and they turned out delicious. Give them a try, you’ll be glad you did.
This is a Williams-Sonoma recipe {I’m their #1 fan. In a Misery/Kathy Bates sort of way}.
St. Patricks Day Recipe: Red Potatoes with Bacon
Ingredients
3 lb. small red-skinned potatoes
8 thick-cut bacon slices
1 Tbs. unsalted butter
1/4 tsp. salt, plus more, to taste
1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper, plus more, to taste
1/3 cup minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
Place the fry pan over medium-high heat and add the butter to the drippings. When it has melted, add the potatoes and cook, stirring and rolling the potatoes in the pan, until they begin to crisp and brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the bacon, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook until the bacon is hot and the potatoes are very crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with the 1/4 tsp. salt and the 1/2 tsp. pepper and toss well. Add the parsley and toss again. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper. Serve hot. Serves 8 to 10.
