Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 LB red baby potatoes 
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 6 cloved garlic
  • 3 T. fresh parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Wash potatoes, place them in a large pot, and cover with water an inch or two deep over the tops of your potatoes. 
  2. Bring to a low boil over medium heat, (skip to step 5 while potatoes are cooking) and boil until potatoes are just fork tender. You don’t want to overcook them and cause them to by mushy.
  3. When the potatoes are done, drain potatoes, and transfer immediately to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking process and cool. 
  4. While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing. 
  5. Warm garlic to about 100ºF, and pour into a small bowl or jar.
  6. Mince garlic, and add to warm olive oil.
  7. Mince parsley and stir into garlic and oil mixture. 
  8. Let marinate until potatoes are ready. 
  9. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut into bite-sized pieces, and place in a large mixing bowl. 
  10. Drizzle with garlic oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. 
  11. Toss together, and serve. 
  12. This salad can be store in the refrigerator for up to a week, but is best served at room temperature, so I recommend removing it ahead of time to come to room temperature before serving.
