Italian Potato Salad

skin-on yellow potatoes (try to choose potatoes with smooth, unblemished skins

kosher salt, divided

lemon juice, about 1-2 lemons

onion,

extra virgin olive oil

garlic

flat-leaf

chives,

oregano,

black pepper

cherry peppers (sweet

Place skin-on yellow potatoes into a large pot, cover with cold water and bring to a boil.

Place one teaspoon of kosher salt into the boiling water and boil uncovered for 30-40 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes, or until tender in the center when poked with a paring knife blade.

If some potatoes are smaller than others, remove them with a spider or tongs and allow the larger ones to keep boiling until done.

While potatoes are cooking, in a small bowl, cover the chopped onions in the lemon juice and set aside.

Remove the hot potatoes to your cutting board and with the side of a spoon, fork or a butter knife, peel the skins off of each hot potato. I found that the side of a fork works best by peeling the top facing you, flip the potato over and peel back the rest. The skin should slide right off.

Once all the potatoes are peeled, slice into thick slices and place gently into a large bowl.

Spoon in three tablespoons of the olive oil and toss gently to coat. This will help seal the slices so they stay firm.

In a medium bowl, whisk the remaining oil, remaining teaspoon of kosher salt, garlic, parsley, chives, oregano, pepper and the onions and lemon juice from earlier.

Add the dressing and the sliced cherry peppers to the oil covered potatoes and gently toss.

Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed, gently mix again and pour into a serving bowl.

Optional: Drizzle on more olive and top with any of the fresh herbs before serving for garnish.

potatoes (new or red potatoes)

salt

string green beans (trimmed)

cherry tomatoes (cut in half)

olive oil (extra virgin)

red wine vinegar

garlic (fresh, minced)

parsley (fresh Italian flat-leaf, chopped)

salt and pepper

lemon juice from ½ lemon (OPTIONAL)

In a large pot of cold water, add the potatoes and a teaspoon of salt.&nbsp;

Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes become tender. When a knife can easily pierce the potato, they are done.

While the potatoes are simmering, bring another pot of water to boil. Add the salt.

Add the string beans and blanch for about 2-3 minutes or until crisp tender and bright green in color.

Drain the green beans and run under cold water to stop the cooking.

While the potatoes continue to simmer, combine the ingredients to make the parsley vinaigrette in a small mason jar. Place the screw-top cap and shake together.

Drain the potatoes and when cool enough to handle, slice them in half or in quarters.&nbsp;

Place the warm potatoes and crispy green beans in a large bowl and toss together with about half of the parsley vinaigrette. Allow the flavors to be absorbed for at least 5 minutes.&nbsp;&nbsp;

When ready to serve, add the tomatoes and the rest of the vinaigrette and drizzle with the juice of half a lemon.&nbsp;

An easy potato salad prepared with a vinaigrette rather than mayonnaise that pairs well with grilled meat and poultry.
