How to Make Bacon And Cabbage Home Fries
- Peel and quarter 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes. Slice crosswise into 1/2-inch thick pieces.
- In a large saucepan, cover potatoes with salted water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, or until tender.
- Drain potatoes and set aside to cool slightly.
- While potatoes cook, cook 6 slices bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes.
- Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon fat; discard the rest.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, to the skillet with the reserved bacon fat and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add 8 cups shredded green cabbage and 1/2 cup water to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
- Transfer cabbage mixture to a bowl and set aside.
- Wipe out the skillet. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and the reserved bacon fat to the skillet. Heat over medium heat.
- Add the cooled potatoes to the skillet. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 8-10 minutes.
- Stir in the cabbage mixture and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes.
- Crumble cooked bacon over the top and serve immediately.
