Warm Potato Salad with Herb Vinaigrette

This Warm Potato Salad is light, flavorful, and a refreshing twist on the classic creamy version. Tossed with a tangy herb vinaigrette, it’s perfect for any meal or gathering.


Ingredients

For the Salad:

  • 2 pounds baby potatoes (or Yukon Gold, cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

For the Herb Vinaigrette:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar (or white wine vinegar)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for balance)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the Potatoes:

    • Place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until fork-tender.
    • Drain and let the potatoes sit for a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
  2. Prepare the Vinaigrette:

    • In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and honey (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Assemble the Salad:

    • While the potatoes are still warm, toss them with the sliced red onion, parsley, dill, and chives in a large mixing bowl.
    • Pour the vinaigrette over the potatoes and gently toss to coat.
  4. Serve:

    • Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
    • Serve the salad warm, garnished with extra herbs for a fresh, vibrant look.

Tips:

  • Add-Ins: For extra texture and flavor, consider adding toasted almonds, capers, or crumbled feta cheese.
  • Make It a Meal: Toss in cooked, shredded chicken or grilled shrimp for a more filling dish.
  • Vinegar Variations: Swap the red wine vinegar with balsamic, apple cider, or champagne vinegar for different flavor profiles.

This Warm Potato Salad with Herb Vinaigrette is perfect as a side dish for roasted meats, grilled fish, or even as a light vegetarian main!
