Garlic And Bacon Roasted Potato Salad Recipes

ROASTED POTATO AND GARLIC SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place 1/2 cup of olive oil in a large bowl. Toss the cubed potatoes in the oil until coated, and then spread them evenly on a baking sheet.
• Pass the red peppers through the bowl of oil, making sure they are evenly coated. Place on a separate baking sheet.
• Cut about 1/2 inch off the tops of the garlic and drizzle with the remaining oil from the bowl. Place on the baking sheet with the red peppers. Sprinkle the potatoes, peppers and garlic with salt and pepper, and then place both sheets in the oven for about 20 minutes.
• Check the potatoes: they should be soft, brown and crispy. If not, return them to the oven for an additional 10 minutes or until they are done. The peppers and garlic will take longer, and are done when the skins on the peppers are black and garlic is dark brown (no more than 40 minutes total).
• Once everything has been roasted, place the potatoes in a large bowl and seal the peppers in a plastic bag to let them steam for 10 minutes. (This will loosen their skins.)
• Take the peppers out of the bag, remove their skins and seeds and chop them up. Add to the bowl with the potatoes and stir to mix.
• Turn the garlic heads upside down and squeeze the softened garlic past into a separate, small bowl. Mix in the balsamic vinegar, 1/3 cup olive oil and oregano until smooth. Pour the dressing onto the potatoes and peppers and toss to coat. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Best when served warm or at room temperature. To prepare in advance for an occasion, refrigerate and then reheat in the microwave just until warmed through.

ROASTED POTATO SALAD WITH BACON

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375°F.
• Clean and halve fingerling or new potatoes lengthwise.
• In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with the garlic, olive oil, 1 teaspoons salt and several grinds of pepper. Place the potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Roast the potatoes until golden brown and tender, about 1 hour, tossing occasionally. Remove and cool.
• While the potatoes are roasting, cut the bacon crosswise into one-fourth-inch pieces. Cook the bacon in a large sauté pan over medium heat until the fat is rendered and the bacon is crisp, about 15 minutes. Stir frequently, watching that the bacon does not stick to the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat and drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate, reserving the grease for another use.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard and red wine vinegar. Season with one-half teaspoons salt and several grinds of black pepper. Taste and adjust mustard, vinegar and seasoning if desired.
• In a large bowl, combine the potatoes and bacon with the sliced onion. Gently stir in enough dressing to coat, then stir in the capers. Taste and adjust seasoning if desired.
• Cover and refrigerate the salad for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to develop. The salad will keep for 3 days, refrigerated. Allow the salad to warm slightly at room temperature before serving.

• Heat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix the oil, garlic cloves, salt, pepper in a large bowl.
• Add potatoes a few handfuls at a time tossing to coat with each addition.

• Meanwhile in a small bowl with a wire whisk or fork combine the mayonaisse, white wine vinegar, dijon mustard, and parsley flakes if using.
• In the larger bowl add the cooled potato cubes, bacon, celery, and red onion. Add the dressing and toss the potatoes to coat. Check to make sure there is enough salt and pepper and adjust to your tastes.
• Best if refrigerated overnight.

SAGE AND GARLIC ROAST TURKEY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Fasten neck skin to back of turkey with skewer. Fold wings across back of turkey so tips are touching. In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients except water, fresh sage and apples.
• On rack in shallow roasting pan, place turkey, breast side up. Brush with butter mixture. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of inside thigh and does not touch bone. Add water to roasting pan.
• Cover turkey loosely with foil or roaster cover; roast 3 hours. Uncover; roast 45 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes longer. Turkey is done when thermometer reads 165°F and drumsticks move easily when lifted or twisted. Place turkey on warm platter; cover with foil to keep warm. Let stand 15 minutes for easiest carving. Garnish with sage and apples.

Arrange potatoes and bell peppers in one layer in 2 large shallow baking pans and roast in middle and lower thirds of oven (simultaneously, roast wrapped garlic on either rack), stirring occasionally and switching position of pans halfway through roasting time, until potatoes are tender and golden brown, about 35 minutes.
