• Ready In: 45mins
• Ingredients: 8

ingredients

• 3 lbs baby red potatoes, washed well, left unpeeled (about 2 inches in diameter)

directions

1. In a large saucepan combine potatoes with salted water to cover by 1 inch and simmer until just tender, about 20 minutes.
2. While potatoes are cooking, in a large heavy skillet cook bacon over moderate heat, stirring, until browned and crisp and transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
3. Drain potatoes and let stand until cool enough to handle; cut potatoes into eighths and in a bowl combine with bacon; keep mixture warm, covered.

6. Serve potato salad warm or at room temperature, garnished with parsley.
