Bacon-Fried Breakfast Potatoes Recipe

Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and then slice into 1/8-inch half moons. Place slices in a bowl of ice water to prevent them from browning while you cook the bacon.

Cook bacon in a cast iron skillet over medium-low heat turning occasionally until evenly browned about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and crumble when cool enough to handle. Reserve bacon grease in the skillet.

Drain potatoes and pat dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle with Cajun seasoning and garlic powder and toss to coat.

Add potatoes to the bacon grease and cook over medium-low hear stirring occasionally to make sure they aren't burning until nicely browned with crispy edges and soft insides 30 to 35 minutes. Cover the pan as needed to speed up the process.

Remove potatoes from the pan. Drizzle with ranch dressing and garnish with bacon crumbles.
