Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Peel and chop the potatoes into bite-sized pieces.
Soak the chopped potatoes in ice-cold water for 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
Cut the bacon into 1-inch pieces and cook in a skillet over medium heat until slightly crispy. Reserve the fat.
In a mixing bowl, combine the dried potatoes with olive oil, 1 tablespoon of reserved bacon fat, garlic, salt, pepper, and onion powder. Toss until well coated.
Spread the seasoned potatoes on a lined baking sheet in a single layer and bake for about 20 minutes.
Remove from oven, gently toss potatoes, sprinkle cooked bacon on top, and drizzle with honey.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy; broil for extra crispiness if desired.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
