Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 2 lbs baby potatoes halved
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Dressing

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ tsp salt

Mix In's

  • 4 slices bacon cooked and chopped
  • 2 celery stalks finely diced
  • ¼ cup red onion finely diced
  • 2 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped
  • 2 tablespoon fresh dill chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Pat the potatoes dry with paper towels, then toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
  • Arrange the potatoes cut side down on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 35-40 minutes or until deeply golden and crispy.
  • Allow the potatoes to cool for about 10 minutes so they stay crisp while mixing.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
  • Add the celery, red onion, dill, parsley, and bacon to the dressing and stir to combine.
  • Gently fold the roasted potatoes into the dressing mixture until evenly coated.
  • Serve warm for the crispiest texture or chill slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Dry the potatoes thoroughly before roasting to help them get extra crispy in the oven.
  • Arrange the potatoes cut side down and avoid overcrowding the pan so they roast instead of steam.
  • Let the potatoes cool for about 10 minutes before mixing with the dressing to help maintain their crispy texture.
  • Toss the potatoes with the dressing while they are still slightly warm so they absorb more flavor.
  • Reserve a little bacon, fresh herbs, and green onion for garnish to give the finished potato salad extra flavor and color.
