BACON-WRAPPED POTATOES | BACON APPETIZERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees Line a rimmed half-sheet pan with foil (one continuous piece is best, to keep the bacon grease from seeping between sheets). If you have an oven-safe wire rack that fits the pan, spray it with non-stick spray and place it in the pan. Using a wire rack will let the bacon grease drain away and help the bacon to crisp up nicely.

BACON WRAPPED POTATOES

Steps:

• Brush the potatoes clean under running water and cut each in quarters (lengthwise). Place them in a small saucepan and pour over just enough water to cover them. Add ¾ teaspoon of salt and cover with a lid. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer covered for about 8 minutes (don't over-cook). Strain the water and transfer the potatoes in a mixing bowl. Place them in the fridge to cool, for about 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit (200 Celsius).
• Pour olive oil over the cooled potatoes and toss. Add fajita seasoning and toss well.
• Cut all bacon slices in half, crosswise. Wrap each half around a potato wedge and secure with a toothpick. Place onto a baking tray lined with baking parchment (or aluminum foil). Repeat with the rest of the potatoes.
• Bake in a preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until the bacon is cooked through and to your liking.
• Serve with a dip of your choice!
