Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 5 slices bacon, cooked then diced small
  • 1 1/2 pounds small fingerling potatoes, cut in half lengthwise
  • - coarse salt, to taste (we used french grey)
  • - fresh cracked black pepper
  • 1 cup creme fraiche
  • 2 tablespoons minced chives, plus more for garnish

How To Make baked fingerling potatoes

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a sheet tray with parchment paper then brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Step 2
    Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat and cook the bacon until crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Step 3
    Place the potatoes on the prepared sheet tray, drizzle with olive oil and season liberally with salt and pepper.
  • Step 4
    Place the sheet tray in the oven and roast until the potatoes are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Step 5
    In the meantime, in a small prep bowl, combine the creme fraiche and chives; season with salt and pepper.
  • Step 6
    Remove the potatoes from the oven and transfer to a serving platter cut-side up. Dollop each roasted potato with the creme fraiche mixture and top with the crisp bacon bits and remaining chives.
