Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Kosher salt
1/3 pound thin green beans, trimmed and cut into thirds
2 pounds small Yukon, white, or red skinned potatoes, quartered
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
3 to 4 slices smoky bacon, finely chopped
2 large shallots, finely chopped
1 small red Fresno chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped, optional
3 tablespoons cider or wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a medium-sized pot of water to a boil. Salt the water and blanch the beans for 3 to 4 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Remove with a slotted spoon or spider, rinse, drain, and reserve. Add the potatoes to the water and bring back to a boil. Cook the potatoes until tender, about 12 minutes.
  • When the potatoes are nearly done, add a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil to a small skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and crisp for 2 to 3 minutes, and then add the shallots and chile. Cook for 2 more minutes, and then stir in the vinegar, sugar, and stock.
  • Drain the potatoes and return them to the hot pot.
  • Pour the bacon mixture over the potatoes and add the green beans, parsley, salt, pepper, 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, and stir to combine. Serve warm or cold.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest green beans and potatoes: Look for green beans that are bright green and crisp, and potatoes that are firm and free of blemishes.
  • Blanch the green beans: Blanching helps to preserve the鮮豔色 and crispness of the green beans. To blanch the green beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Immediately transfer the green beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Boil the potatoes: To boil the potatoes, place them in a large pot of cold water. Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes for 10-15 minutes, or until they are tender. Drain the potatoes and let them cool.
  • Make the herb dressing: The herb dressing is what really makes this salad special. To make the dressing, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper. Then, stir in chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, and chives.
  • Assemble the salad: To assemble the salad, combine the green beans, potatoes, and red onion in a large bowl. Pour the herb dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Serve the salad immediately.
