Instructions

1-Getting started: Getting started with this honey bacon roasted potatoes recipe is as easy as pie let’s walk through it one step at a time so you feel confident in the kitchen! First, you’ll peel and dice those 4 large potatoes, then place them in a pot with cold water and 1 tablespoon of salt. Boil until tender, about 8 minutes after the water starts bubbling, to set the stage for roasting.

2-Once boiled: drain the potatoes and let them steam dry for 10 minutes while you preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly oil a rimmed baking sheet and pop it in the oven to heat up. Then, spread the potatoes on the sheet, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste toss everything well for even coating.

3-Roast: for 30 minutes, give them a quick stir, and continue for another 10 to 15 minutes until they’re golden and crispy. Meanwhile, cook the diced bacon in a skillet until crispy, drain the fat, and stir in the 3 minced garlic cloves and 2 tablespoons of honey. Finally, pour this mixture over the hot potatoes, toss gently, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve warm. This method ensures a crispy outside and fluffy inside that’s hard to resist!

Notes

🥔 Use Yukon gold potatoes for the best texture and flavor.
🔪 Cut potatoes into uniform pieces for even cooking.
🍳 Roast in a single layer for proper caramelization; use two baking sheets if making a larger batch.
