Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Baby potatoes
• 1.5 cups Fresh corn kernels
• 2 Jalapeno peppers
• 0.25 cups Extra-virgin olive oil
• 3 tbsp Fresh lime juice
• 1 tsp Honey
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.25 cups Fresh cilantro, chopped
• 0.5 cups Red onion, finely diced
• 2 Green onions, thinly sliced
• 1 tsp Kosher salt
• 0.5 tsp Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Place the baby potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt to the water.

Step 2

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes or until they are fork-tender.

Step 3

While the potatoes are cooking, heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat and add the corn kernels. Toast for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly charred. Set aside.

Step 4

To prepare the vinaigrette, finely mince one jalapeno and thinly slice the other for garnish. In a small bowl, whisk together the minced jalapeno, olive oil, lime juice, honey, garlic, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper until emulsified.

Step 5

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them and allow them to cool slightly. Cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size, and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

Step 6

Add the charred corn, red onion, green onions, and about 3/4 of the prepared vinaigrette to the bowl with the potatoes. Toss gently to combine, ensuring all the ingredients are well coated.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 8

Transfer the potato salad to a serving dish. Drizzle the remaining vinaigrette over the top, and garnish with the sliced jalapeno and additional cilantro.

Step 9

Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Enjoy!
