Chrissy Teigen's Creamy Potato Salad With Bacon
Cravings by Chrissy Teigen
Ingredients
- 4 pounds medium red potatoes
Kosher salt
12 ounces bacon
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 heaping tablespoons sweet pickle relish
A squeeze of yellow mustard
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1/2 cup finely diced red onion
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallion greens
1 large jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely diced
Directions
- In a large pot, combine the potatoes with water to cover. Salt it until it tastes good, and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until you can pierce the potatoes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain and cool to room temperature, then cut them into bite-size pieces and transfer to a large bowl.
- Cut the bacon into 1/4-inch pieces. In a medium skillet, cook half the bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 10 minutes.
- Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining bacon.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the mayo, Dijon mustard, relish, yellow mustard, black pepper, and 2 teaspoons salt until smooth.
- Add the dressing to the potatoes along with the bacon, eggs, onion, scallion greens, and jalapeño. Gently toss to combine.
