Bacon Wrapped Potatoes with Honey Scallion Sauce

By khojnicki

Ingredients

• 2 large Idaho potatoes
• 12 slices bacon
• 2 c canola oil
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tbsp chopped scallions
• 1/2 tsp chopped fresh parsley
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Cut each potato lengthwise into 6 wedges. Wrap each wedge with a slice of bacon and secure each end with a toothpick. Place the oil and potato wedges in a large saute pan. Over medium high heat, cook the wedges until tender, turning occasionally, about 20 mins. Increase the heat to high and cook until the bacon is crisp, 5-10 mins. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.

In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, honey, scallions, parsley, 1/2 tsp pepper and salt to taste.

Carefully remove the toothpicks from the potato wedges and transfer to a platter. Drizzle with butter mixture.
