2 large cloves garlic, pressed
1 tbsp. tomato paste
2 lbs. Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch pieces

In a cold Dutch oven, add bacon and turn the heat to medium. Cook until browned, about 9 to 10 minutes.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a bowl and set aside.

4

Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.

Add the remaining ingredients except parsley, return the bacon back to the pot – keep some on the side for garnish - stir well and bring to a boil.
