Garlic-Herb Potato Salad

Ingredients

• 3 lbs small red potatoes, scrubbed and rinsed
• Salt
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1 Tbsp mustard – spicy brown
• 3 cloves garlic, minced (1 Tbsp)
• 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 1/3 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
• 2 1/2 Tbsp chopped fresh chives
• 1 Tbsp finely chopped fresh thyme
• ½ sweet onion – cut in half then sliced thin

Instructions

1. Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by an inch or two. Season water with salt.
2. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until potatoes are just tender all the way through, about 10 – 15 minutes (they should pierce easily with a knife, but you also don’t want them really tender/mushy).
3. Drain potatoes and let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
4. While potatoes are cooking prepare the dressing – in a mixing bowl whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, pepper, parsley, chives and thyme. Season with salt to taste (about 1 1/2 tsp).
5. Let mixture rest, now take your potatoes and dice into small even size chunks (about 1-inch). Then once potatoes are ready, place cut potatoes into a large mixing bowl.
6. Pour dressing over top and gently toss just a few times to coat. Top with sweet onion and serve warm or chilled.
