Description

With crisp potatoes, lemony Dijon dressing, pickled red onions and peppery arugula, this light and bright summer salad packs deliciously tangy flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. small potatoes, sliced in half
  • drizzle of olive oil, for roasting/grilling
  • salt, pepper
  • juice of 1/2 a small lemon
  • a few big handfuls of arugula (about 3 oz.)
  • 2 tablespoons pickled onions
  • 2 tablespoons capers, drained
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
+

  • 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced

  7. Small 1” potatoes should cook for a total of approx. 20-25 minutes.
  8. Transfer warm cooked potatoes to the large bowl and toss with the dressing.

  10. Taste and add more dressing to your liking.

*If using an outdoor grill, you may need a pan or grill basket so the potatoes don’t fall through the grates. You could also could boil your potatoes or roast them in the oven.
