Yukon Roasted Potatoes with Bacon, Onion and Garlic Recipe

Preparation: Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). In a large roasting pan, cook bacon until crisp, about 7 to 8 minutes. Remove bacon; drain on paper towels, crumble and set aside. Pour bacon fat into small bowl (there should be approximately 1/4 cup - if not, add vegetable oil to equal this amount). Place gold potatoes (skin side down), onions, and garlic in roasting pan. Drizzle bacon fat over vegetables. Sprinkle with thyme , salt, and pepper. Roast for about 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender and lightly browned. Adjust seasonings and sprinkle with crumbled bacon. Yield: 4 servings Recipe Source: BC Vegetable Marketing Commission Reprinted with permission.
