DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Cut the bacon slices in half crosswise, roll up each piece and secure with a wooden toothpick. Trim the toothpick. Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over high heat. Season the chicken with 1/4 tsp. salt. Add half the chicken to the skillet, skin-side down, scatter the bacon around the chicken and cook until the chicken is golden brown and the bacon is crisp, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken and bacon to a plate. Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces.

2:
Wipe out the skillet and return to medium heat. In a medium bowl, toss the potatoes with the olive oil and season with 1/4 tsp. salt. Transfer the potatoes and any oil in the bowl to the skillet. Arrange the potatoes cut-side down and cook until golden brown and crisp, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn and cook on the rounded sides until crisp, about 2 minutes. Add the onions, peppers and rosemary and toss to combine. Cook, covered, shaking the pan occasionally, for 5 minutes.
