Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 1 cup fresh parsley
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 clove garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cup red onion
Instructions
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and place them in a large pot of salted water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are cooking, finely chop the fresh parsley and dice the red onion into small pieces. Mince the garlic clove.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and let them cool slightly. Cut the potatoes into halves (or quarters if they are larger).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked potatoes, chopped parsley, and diced red onion. Drizzle the dressing over the mixture and gently toss to coat evenly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve cold or at room temperature as a light and refreshing side dish.
