Prepare the Garlic-Butter Sauce:
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
Prepare the Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 392°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the potatoes. Slice each potato halfway through at 1/4-inch intervals, being careful not to cut all the way through. You can place the potato between two wooden spoons to prevent cutting all the way through.
Cut the bacon into small pieces that can fit into the slits of the potatoes.
Assemble the Potatoes:
Insert a piece of bacon into each slit of the potatoes.
Brush the potatoes generously with the garlic-butter sauce, making sure to get some sauce into each slit.
Bake the Potatoes:
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and cover them with aluminum foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to allow the potatoes to become crispy.
