For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or garlic powder during the last few minutes of cooking. Feel free to experiment with other herbs such as rosemary or parsley. If you don't have time to refrigerate the potatoes overnight, you can speed up the cooling process by spreading them out on a baking sheet after boiling.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPlace the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold, salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until just tender, about 15-20 minutes. Avoid overcooking; the potatoes should hold their shape.
02
StepDrain the potatoes thoroughly and allow them to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight. This step ensures they crisp up beautifully when sauteed.
03
StepOnce cooled, cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces, roughly 1/2-inch cubes.
04
StepHeat a large, heavy-bottomed saute pan or cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking hot. Add the olive oil, swirling to coat the pan. (1 minute)
05
StepAdd the diced potatoes to the hot pan in a single layer. Sear without stirring for 5-7 minutes, allowing them to develop a golden-brown crust on the bottom.
06
StepFlip the potatoes and continue to saute until evenly browned and crispy, another 5-7 minutes.
07
StepAdd the diced bacon to the pan and saute until golden and crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
08
StepAdd the diced red bell pepper and red onion to the pan and saute until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
09
StepRemove the pan from the heat and season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
10
StepGarnish with freshly chopped chives and thyme before serving.
