Ingredients

• 2 pounds baby potatoes
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 slices bacon
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 1.5 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley

Directions

Step 1

Scrub the baby potatoes clean and cut them in half if large. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt.

Step 2

Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer the potatoes for 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, cut the bacon into small pieces and cook it in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the cooked bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside. Leave about 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet.

Step 4

Finely dice the yellow onion and add it to the skillet with the bacon grease. Sauté over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and black pepper. Add this mixture to the skillet with the onions and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 6

Add the drained potatoes to the skillet and toss gently to coat them in the warm dressing. Let the potatoes heat through for 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Turn off the heat and mix in the crispy bacon pieces and chopped parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 8

Serve the hot potato salad immediately, either as a side dish or a light main course.
