Bacon-Wrapped New Potatoes

Now, before we get frying in the kitchen, here’s what you’ll need to make this bacon-wrapped joy:

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of new potatoes, washed and trimmed
  • 8 slices of bacon, because everything is better with bacon
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, for that extra sizzle
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh rosemary or chives, just for that fancy touch (optional)

Got your ingredients? Great! Now let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of making these little morsels of joy that will leave everyone begging for more:

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). You want it nice and toasty for the magic to happen.
  2. In a pot of boiling water, toss those new potatoes in for about 10-12 minutes, or until they’re fork-tender. No one wants a crunchy potato wrapped in bacon!
  3. Once they’re all tender and cozy, drain those babies and let them cool for a few minutes. We don’t want any burnt fingers here!
  4. While the potatoes are cooling, take your slices of bacon and cut them in half. Patience may not be your middle name, but let’s get this right!
  5. Now, wrap each potato with the bacon. Secure them with toothpicks if needed. The bacon’s about to put a ring on it!
  6. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and those herbs if you’re feeling fancy.
  7. Bake in that hot oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the bacon is deliciously crispy and golden brown. The smell will have everyone running to the kitchen!
  8. Once done, let them cool a bit, remove the toothpicks, and get ready for the compliments to roll in!

And there you have it! Your Bacon-Wrapped New Potatoes are ready to win hearts and satisfy appetites. Serve them warm and prepare to take a bow as everyone devours your creation. Enjoy!
