Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized cubes.
- Finely chop the onion and rosemary.
2. Cook the Bacon:
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Remove the bacon from the skillet and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
- Reserve about 2-3 tablespoons of bacon grease in the skillet and discard the rest.
3. Cook the Potatoes:
- In the same skillet, add the diced potatoes.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
4. Add the Onions and Spices:
- Add the finely chopped onion to the skillet with the potatoes.
- Stir in the rosemary, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5-7 minutes until the onions are soft and the spices are well distributed.
5. Crisp the Potatoes:
- Increase the heat to medium-high to crisp the potatoes if desired. Stir frequently to avoid burning.
6. Combine with Bacon:
- Crumble the cooked bacon and add it back to the skillet.
- Stir to combine all ingredients and heat through for about 2-3 minutes.
7. Serve:
- Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish.
- Enjoy your savory and aromatic Bacon and Rosemary Breakfast Potatoes!

Tips:

- For extra crispy potatoes, parboil them for a few minutes before frying.

- Make sure to drain excess fat from the bacon before mixing it with the potatoes to avoid greasiness.

- Use fresh rosemary for a more robust flavor, but dried rosemary can be used in a pinch.

- If you're short on time, pre-cooked bacon can be used.

- Experiment with additional spices like garlic powder or cayenne pepper for a different flavor profile.

- To ensure even cooking, cut the potatoes into uniform sizes.

- Stir occasionally to prevent the potatoes from sticking to the pan.
