Bacon And Onion Mashed Potatoes

• 1 1/4 pounds red potatoes, quartered
• 1/2 cup whole buttermilk
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 slices center-cut bacon
• 3/4 cup chopped white onion
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar
• 3/8 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chopped green onions

1. Arrange potatoes in a microwave-safe dish; cover tightly with plastic wrap. Cut a 1/2-inch slit in plastic. Microwave at HIGH 8 minutes or until tender; transfer to a bowl. Microwave buttermilk in a microwave-safe cup 30 seconds; pour buttermilk and oil over potatoes. Mash until mostly smooth.
2. While potatoes cook, heat bacon in a skillet over medium heat; cook until crisp, turning frequently. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate; cool and crumble. Add chopped white onion and sugar to drippings in pan; cook 5 minutes. Stir bacon, onion, salt, and pepper into potatoes. Sprinkle with chopped green onions. Serve potatoes immediately.
