Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold or red potatoes, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • ⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

  • 2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • ½ cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved (optional)
  • Sea salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Boil the Potatoes: In a large pot, cover potato chunks with cold water and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to simmer. Cook until tender but not mushy (about 15-20 minutes). Drain in a colander.
  2. Cool the Potatoes: Let the drained potatoes cool for about 5 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Dressing: In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, and pepper. Add red onion, oregano, parsley, and olives (if using) and stir gently.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Add warm potatoes to the dressing mixture and fold gently until coated evenly without mashing.
  5. Final Touches: Adjust seasoning as needed; serve immediately or chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving at room temperature.
