Roxy15 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Bacon Wrapped Potato Bites With Spicy Sour Cream Dipping Sauce: 1 lb. Small Or Medium Red Potatoes 1-1/2 Tsp. Chopped Fresh Rosemary 1 T. Olive Oil 1/2 Tsp. Salt Freshly Ground Black Pepper 12 oz.s To lb. Thick-Cut Bacon 1 Cup-(8-oz.s) Sour Cream 1 Tsp. Hot Sauce Salt & Pepper To Taste Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Wash and dry the potatoes. Chop them into 1-inch pieces, keeping the chunks roughly the same size, even if they aren't the exact same shape. Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Season the water with salt. Once the water begins to boil, cook the potatoes for about 3 to 4 minutes, until you can stick a fork into them without too much resistance. You want the potatoes to be almost, but not fully, cooked through (so they won't fall apart during the next steps). Drain the potatoes and put them in a large bowl. Add the Rosemary, Olive Oil, Salt, and a few grinds of Pepper, and toss until the potatoes are evenly coated. Cut the strips of bacon in half (with a short, vertical slice). Wrap each piece of potato in a half-strip of bacon, securing it with a toothpick. Put the potatoes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. You may need to cook the potatoes in two batches. Cook the potatoes for 15 minutes, then flip each piece. Cook for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the bacon is cooked through and crisp. Mix the Sour Cream and Hot Sauce in a small bowl. Season with Salt and Pepper. Pile the potato bites on a plate and serve alongside the dip. Quote Link to comment

Roxy15 Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 I haven't made this ok? I love anything with bacon:) I found this while working on my recipe book. The only ingredient that I question is the rosemary..but..that is just me. I don't like parsley, cilantro and stuff like that. Knowing me...I would probably keep that out and just salt the potatoes with some Garlic Salt and Pepper or sprinkle Tony Chachere's Spice It Up Seasoning on it. I would use Baby Red Potatoes also. If you make it...hope you like it:) I just now thought of this idea too...I think a slice of Cheddar Cheese wrapped around the potato and then the bacon would be good on it. Quote Link to comment
