Things You'll Need:
- 1 lb of potatoes (Green Giant Idaho Potatoes work best)
- 1/2 lb of bacon chopped up in 1/2 inch pieces
- A pinch of Parsley (optional)
- 2 tbsp of butter, margarine, or olive oil
- 1/4 cup of chopped onions
- 1/2 head of minced garlic
- Salt
- Pepper
- Frying pan with cover
-
Step 1
First, chop up about 1/4 cup of onions and mince about 1/2 head of garlic. Place in separate bowl. Chop up about 1/2 a pound of bacon into squares a half an inch big. An easy way to do this is with the bacon vertical, cut down the center and they chop into 1/2 thick slices.
-
Step 2
Preheat stove on medium-high heat. Place butter (or margarine or olive oil), garlic, onions, salt and pepper in a frying pan. Saute all the ingredients in the frying pan for about 3 minutes. If there is a lot of extra butter or oil, drain the desired amount.
-
Step 3
Turn heat down to medium heat. Place chopped up bacon in frying pan for approximately 2 minutes. Stir all ingredients constantly for a few minutes.
-
Step 4
Mix in chopped up potatoes and parsley flakes with the rest of the ingredients. Reduce heat. Cover pan and simmer until potatoes are tender.
