Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (400Β°F) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size, ensuring all pieces are similar in size for even cooking.
Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through cooking.
While the potatoes are roasting, finely dice the red onion and mince the garlic. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to create the dressing.
Once the potatoes are finished roasting, transfer them to a large serving bowl and let them cool slightly for 5-10 minutes.
Add the diced red onion, capers, and chopped fresh parsley to the potatoes. Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together until well combined.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled, depending on your preference. Enjoy!
