Bacon And Blue Cheese Potato Surprise Recipes

BACON BLUE CHEESE AND POTATO HASH

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the potato chunks and simmer until about halfway cooked, 4 to 5 minutes. (A knife shouldn't pierce the chunks easily; there should still be a little resistance in the center.) Drain and pat the potatoes very dry.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the bacon until crisp, 3 to 4 minutes, then remove to paper towels to drain.
• Increase the heat to medium high. Add the par-cooked potatoes to the skillet. Cook, tossing occasionally, until they begin to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the bell pepper, paprika and garlic powder and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the pepper just begins to wilt, about 3 minutes, adjusting the heat if the potatoes or peppers begin to burn. Add the scallion whites and cook until the potatoes are crisp and tender and everything is well browned, 3 to 4 minutes more.
• Sprinkle with the cooked bacon, scallion greens and blue cheese. Toss and serve immediately.
