Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the cubed red potatoes and cook until fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set aside.

  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy and the fat has rendered, about 5-7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the crispy bacon to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, crispy bacon pieces, chopped green onions, and chopped parsley.

  5. Pour the dressing over the potato mixture and gently toss until the potatoes are evenly coated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. Serve the hot potato salad immediately while it's still warm, garnished with additional chopped parsley on top for a fresh touch.
