Step 1
Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch cubes. Place in a pot of cold salted water.
Step 2
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Simmer 8–10 minutes until just tender but still holding shape.
Step 3
Drain potatoes well in a colander. Spread on a clean kitchen towel to cool and dry.
Step 4
In a 12-inch skillet over medium-high, cook bacon until crispy, 5–6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Step 5
Add onion to the bacon fat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and soft, 4–5 minutes.
Step 6
Add garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Step 7
Add dried potatoes to the skillet in a single layer. Do not stir for 3 minutes—let them brown.
Step 8
Stir and spread into an even layer again. Cook until golden and crispy, 4–5 minutes more.
Step 9
Taste and season with salt and pepper. Return bacon to the skillet and toss gently to combine.
Step 10
Transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
