Ingredients
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 2 pounds baby Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
- ½ pound cremini mushrooms, quartered
- 1 large sweet onion, chopped
- 2 slices bacon
- 2 green onions, sliced (Optional)
- ⅓ cup chopped fresh parsley (Optional)
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Whisk olive oil, 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, honey, paprika, garlic, salt, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Stir potatoes, mushrooms, and sweet onion into vinegar mixture; toss to coat. Spread vegetables over prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in preheated oven until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate, crumble bacon.
- Transfer potato mixture to a large bowl and toss with bacon, green onions, parsley, and remaining 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar.
Notes
If you can’t find baby Yukon Golds, don’t sweat it, you can get the regular Yukon Golds and cut them into roughly 1-inch pieces.
Swap Ideas – Vinegar: apple cider, red wine, white wine, white balsamic; Bacon: pancetta, crumbled sausage (chorizo); Fresh Herbs: tarragon, basil, dill. You could even cheat and use your favorite vinaigrette dressing, I won’t tell! 🙂
