Peel the potatoes, then chop them into 1-inch cubes. Rinse under cold water and set aside.
Slice the onions into thin rings. Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the parsley.
In a large, deep skillet or cast-iron pan, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and place it on paper towels to drain. Once cooled, crumble the bacon and set aside.
Keep about 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease in the skillet, and discard the rest.
Add the butter and olive oil to the skillet with the reserved bacon grease. Heat over medium heat until melted and combined.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet. Cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown. Remove the onions and set aside.
Add the chopped potatoes to the same skillet. Sprinkle with the rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes start to brown.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add 1/4 cup of water to the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and cover the skillet with a lid. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. Stir occasionally and add a little more water if needed to prevent sticking.
Once the potatoes are cooked, stir in the caramelized onions and crumbled bacon. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat everything through.
Remove from heat and sprinkle the dish with chopped parsley for freshness. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve hot as a comforting main dish or a savory side.
