Cooking Steps
- Place the bacon in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm it up, then dice into bite-sized pieces.
- Wash and dice the golden potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Soak in cold water for 15 minutes to enhance crispness.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the drained potatoes and season with salt, pepper, and Old Bay seasoning. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in the diced bacon once potatoes are golden. Cook for an additional 5–6 minutes until bacon is crispy.
- Add minced garlic and stir for 1–2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
- Drizzle maple syrup over the mixture and cook for another minute to caramelize slightly.
- Remove from heat and garnish with parsley or chives before serving.

Notes
Ensure your oil is hot before adding potatoes for the best crispy texture. Cut everything uniformly for consistent cooking, and feel free to customize spices or veggies as needed.
