Wash the baby red potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Leave the skin on for added texture.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, chop the turkey bacon into small pieces. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon pieces until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
Finely dice the onion. In the same skillet used for the bacon, sauté the onion over medium heat until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and chicken broth to the skillet with the onions. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes to slightly reduce and allow the flavors to meld.
Add the cooked, drained potatoes to the skillet and gently toss them in the warm dressing until evenly coated. Be careful not to crush the potatoes.
Season the salad with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste. Stir in the cooked bacon pieces.
Sprinkle the salad with freshly chopped parsley for a bright, herby finish. Serve warm and enjoy!
