Green Chili Potato Salad image

I created this recipe many years ago when I was looking to do something a little different with my grandma's old fashioned potato salad dressing recipe (which is great by the way). I am now mortified that I actually used canned green chilis...it is much better with fresh ones!

LEMON, GARLIC AND CHILI POTATO SALAD



LEMON, GARLIC AND CHILI POTATO SALAD image

Categories     Salad     Potato     Side     Picnic     Vegetarian     Backyard BBQ     Spring     Summer     Potluck

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 lbs small new (unpeeled) potatoes, preferably of similar size
Sea salt
4-6 1/2 TBSP unsalted butter, at a warm room temperature
2 cloves garlic, crushed
Finely grated zest and juice of 2 lemons
2 TSP seeded, minced green chili pepper, such as Anaheim, serrano or jalapeño
1 small handful flat-leaf parsley leaves, coarsely chopped
About 20 chive stems, coarsely chopped
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Thoroughly rinse the potatoes, then place them in a pot. Cover with several inches of water and a good pinch of salt; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until the potatoes are easily pierced with a sharp knife. Meanwhile, whisk together the butter (to taste), garlic, lemon juice and chili pepper in a small bowl. Drain the potatoes; carefully but quickly cut them into quarters, transferring them to a mixing bowl as you work. Immediately add the butter mixture to the bowl; gently toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated. Let cool. Sprinkle the lemon zest, parsley and chives evenly over the coated potatoes. Season lightly with salt and pepper; toss gently to distribute. Serve at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape well and won't get mushy in the salad.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are just tender: Overcooked potatoes will fall apart in the salad.
  • Let the potatoes cool completely before adding them to the salad: This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light hand with the mayonnaise: Too much mayonnaise will make the salad heavy and greasy.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins: Chili pepper, chopped onion, celery, and pickles are all classic additions to chili potato salad. You can also get creative and add things like crumbled bacon, cheese, or chopped hard-boiled eggs.
  • Serve the salad chilled: This will help the flavors to meld and will make the salad more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Chili potato salad is a classic summer side dish that is always a hit. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like it spicy, mild, creamy, or tangy, there is a chili potato salad recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy side dish, give chili potato salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
