Ingredients

Potato Salad

  • 2 pounds potatoes
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
  • Garnish with extra fresh herbs

Chimichurri

  • 1/2 cup packed cilantro leaves
  • 1/2 cup packed flat leaf parsley
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
  • 1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
  • 1 green onion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Place all of the ingredients for the chimichurri into a food processor and purée until smooth. Makes approximately 1 cup.
  • Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, add salt and cook for 5-8 minutes or until fork tender. Drain and cool.
  • Cut the larger potatoes in half and place all of them in a serving bowl along with the red onion, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper and desired amount of chimichurri sauce. I used approximately 1/3 cup. Toss everything together and taste for seasoning. Garnish with extra herbs and serve or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
