Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about 2 inches. Season with salt. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until just tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Cook the bacon in a large cast iron skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour all but 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings into a small bowl and set aside. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
- Wipe out the skillet and return to medium-high heat. Heat the remaining bacon fat and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in the skillet. Add the potatoes, season with salt and pepper to taste, and arrange in a single layer. Cook, without stirring, until well browned on 1 side, about 4 minutes. Using a spatula, turn the potatoes in small sections, and continue cooking, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes or until well browned. Stir in the onions, heat through, and sprinkle with the parsley and cayenne, if desired. Transfer to a warm platter and crumble the bacon on top, serve. Copyright 2005 Television Food Network, G.P.

Steps:
- Arrange potato pieces evenly on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave on high until just tender, about 4 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. Cut potatoes into bite-size chunks.
- Heat butter and olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When butter melts and starts to turn brown, swirl the pan and add the potatoes. Shake pan to arrange in an even layer. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- As potatoes brown, toss them and keep turning them every few minutes until they are crusty and crispy-edged and a rich reddish-brown color, 10 to 12 minutes. If potatoes seem to be cooking too quickly, reduce heat to medium. Serve topped with chopped chives.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice because they have a high starch content, which makes them crispy when fried.
- Cut the potatoes into even strips: This will help them cook evenly.
- Soak the potato strips in water: This will remove excess starch and help them crisp up.
- Dry the potato strips thoroughly: This will prevent them from sticking together when frying.
- Use a deep fryer or a large saucepan filled with oil: The oil should be at least 3 inches deep.
- Fry the potato strips in batches: Do not overcrowd the fryer or saucepan, as this will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Fry the potato strips until they are golden brown and crispy: This will take about 3-5 minutes.
- Drain the potato strips on paper towels: This will remove excess oil.
- Season the potato strips with salt and pepper, or your favorite seasonings: Serve immediately.
