Step 1: Preheat the Oven
• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
Step 2: Assemble the Ingredients in the Dish
• Place the thinly sliced or cubed potatoes in an even layer in the prepared casserole dish.
• Sprinkle the chopped onion and bacon evenly over the potatoes.
• Dot the surface with diced butter for rich flavor.
Step 3: Season and Cover
• Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the amount based on your preference.
• Cover the dish with foil to allow the potatoes to cook evenly and retain moisture during baking.
Step 4: Bake
• Place the covered dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes. This initial baking period ensures the potatoes become tender and flavorful.
Step 5: Broil for Crispness
• Remove the foil and give the potatoes a good stir to redistribute the ingredients.
• Set the oven to broiler mode and return the dish to the oven. Broil for about 5 minutes, stirring every minute or so to achieve even browning and crispiness. Watch closely to prevent burning.
Step 6: Serve
• Once the potatoes are crispy and golden brown, remove the dish from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy the rich combination of buttery potatoes, savory bacon, and sweet onions.
