Heat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook for 5–6 minutes until crisp. Lift it out with a slotted spoon, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
Add the potatoes and olive oil, season with the smoked paprika, salt and black pepper, then cook for 12–15 minutes, turning regularly, until golden and nearly tender.
Stir in the onion and red pepper. Cook for 6–8 minutes until the vegetables are soft and lightly caramelised.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute, then return the bacon to the pan and toss everything together until piping hot.
Scatter over the parsley and serve straight from the pan.
Notes
For extra heat, add a pinch of chilli flakes with the garlic.
