Instructions:
- Cook the Bacon:
- In a large skillet or pan, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.
- Cook the Potatoes:
- Add the quartered potatoes to the pan with the bacon drippings. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender. If needed, add a little olive oil for extra cooking fat.
- Cook the Green Beans:
- Add the green beans to the skillet with the potatoes. Stir and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender but still have a slight crunch.
- Add Garlic and Seasonings:
- Add the minced garlic, smoked paprika, thyme (or rosemary), salt, and pepper to the pan. Stir well and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Combine and Garnish:
- Return the cooked bacon to the skillet and mix everything together. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
