I created this recipe with my friends at Organic Prairie, using their Organic Bacon. This is my favorite bacon as it’s sugar free, born, raised, and processed in the USA, and it’s insanely delicious! I order online at Organic Prairie all the time (so much so, that I received a holiday gift this year for being one of their top customers, haha if that tells you how much of a fan I am!).

Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Fill a 4-quart pot three quarters with water and add a little salt to the water.
Step 3
Add the potatoes (skin on) and bring to a boil. Boil for about 10 minutes until the potatoes are partially cooked. You want the potatoes to be partially cooked because they will cook more in the oven in the next step.
Drain the potatoes and run under cool water.
Step 4
In a small dish, add the black pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder and mix together. Set aside.
Step 5
Chop the potatoes in half or in quarters, depending on how bit they are. Cut the bacon slices in half.
Step 6
Wrap the potatoes in the bacon slices and secure them with a toothpick. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the potatoes with the spice mix.
Step 7
Bake for 15 minutes, rotate potatoes, if needed. And bake again for another 15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and golden brown.
Sprinkle with fresh chives and serve with sour cream, ketchup, or barbecue sauce.
Tips
- I use Baby Gold potatoes in this recipe as they are already small so I only have to cut in half or in quarters. You are welcome to use Fingerling potatoes, Russet potatoes, or even sweet potatoes. You may just have to cut them more to get them bite sized.
- Parchment paper is really crucial for this recipe so they don’t stick. I always prefer to use parchment paper, but sometimes it’s just a luxury and it’s not really needed, but I feel like you should use it here.
- Toothpicks are essential in this recipe as they hold the bacon onto the potatoes while they cook, so don’t skip them! If you don’t have toothpicks, you could skewer these on skewers as well and that would work.
- Be sure to check the potatoes and flip them so the bacon cooks evenly and gets crispy on all sides.
- I serve these with a trio of sour cream, ketchup, and barbecue sauce. You can serve them with any dipping sauces you like!
FAQ's
Yes, you can use Russet potatoes, red potatoes, or even sweet potatoes. Just be sure that you cut them into small pieces so the bacon wraps around them completely.
I love serving these with a trio of dipping sauces like BBQ sauce, ketchup, and sour cream. If you're not serving as an appetizer and want to serve as a main course, you can add in any kind of protein you like. These would be delicious with chicken, steak, and of course burgers! Try them with my Garlic Herb Beef Tenderloin Steak or Avocado Lettuce Wrap Burgers.
