Easy German Potato Salad
Ingredients:
2 lbs. baby red potatoes, halved or quartered
6 to 8 slices bacon, chopped
1/2 cup chopped green onion, plus extra for garnish
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons stone ground or Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Boil potatoes until just tender. Do not overcook. Drain.
Cook bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat until crisp (about 6 – 7 minutes). Remove bacon. Set aside and leave drippings in skillet. Add green onions to skillet with drippings and cook a minute or two. Pour in chicken stock, vinegar, dijon mustard and sugar. Bring liquid to a simmer and let reduce down a minute or two.
Add potatoes and bacon. Season mixture with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat, toss in parsley. Serve warm or cold.
Notes:
If mixture seems to be just slightly dry you can either toss in a little more olive oil or chicken stock. You can also garnish the top with chopped parsley or extra green onions before serving.
