Bonnies Lemon Pepperoncini Potato Salad Recipes

LEMON POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Dressing: Shake in a jar.

HERBED POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or Dutch oven combine sliced potatoes and salt. Cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes are easily pierced by a paring knife and pulled out with little resistance, about 5 to 6 minutes.
• Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain. Transfer the potatoes to a large mixing bowl.
• In a small food processor or blender, combine the olive oil, 1/3 cup parsley, 1/3 cup green onions, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic and freshly ground black pepper. Process until the herbs and garlic have been chopped into little pieces. Then, while running the food processor, pour in the reserved cooking water and process just until blended. (If you don't have a food processor or blender, just finely chop the parsley and onions and whisk the dressing together until the oil is fully incorporated.)
• Drizzle the potatoes with the herbed olive oil mixture and gently mix to combine. (It will look like you've poured in too much dressing, but don't worry, the potatoes will soak it up!) Let the potatoes rest for ten minutes, gently tossing every few minutes.
• Add the celery to the bowl, along with a couple tablespoons each of additional chopped parsley and green onions. Toss again. Season generously to taste with salt and pepper.
• Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until you're ready to serve. This salad is best served within a few hours, but will keep in the refrigerator for about three days.

PEPPERONI POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pot with cold water and add 2 tablespoons salt. Cover, bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain, cut in half and transfer to a bowl.
• For the dressing, mix together the mayonnaise, marinara sauce and Parmesan. Pour the dressing over the potatoes, add the scallions and give it a stir.
• Fold in the mozzarella pearls, pepperoni, olives, basil, pepper and three-quarters of the chopped parsley. Garnish with the remaining parsley.

BONNIE'S LEMON PEPPERONCINI POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Select thin skinned red potatoes if possible. Scrub them well, remove any blemishes, and no need to peel.
• 2. Cut the small potatoes into quarters, cut larger potatoes into chunks. They cook better if they are more uniform in size.
• 3. They should look like this.
• 4. Cover the potatoes with about an inch of water and bring them to a boil and turn the heat to low and simmer until done but still firm. Don't overcook.
• 5. Chop the onions fine and set aside.
• 6. Select four small pepperoncini peppers and remove the stems, but not the seeds.
• 7. Chop the pepperoncini peppers fine. Gather all the other ingredients to make the dish.
• 8. When the potatoes are tender, drain in a colander, then dump the potatoes back into the hot pot with the lid.
• 9. Push the potatoes to the side of the pot, and quickly add the rest of the ingredients, starting with the butter first. Push the potatoes back over the top of the ingredients, add the lid and turn the burner on low for 2 minutes. Turn the burner off, This melts the butter, and heats up the garlic, peppers and seasonings.
• 10. Gently mix the potatoes until they are coated with the hot butter mixture. At this point, you have a great side dish that goes with any fish, meat, pork, or chicken! But we are making an equally great potato salad, so we will now need to let this mixture come to room temperature before adding the dressing.
• 11. Mix the mayonnaise and the celery seeds until well combined. Fold the mixture into the cooled potatoes. I love this texture, it is creamy like mashed potatoes with small chunks of potatoes. I use my spoon to cut any potatoes that are too big. Let the mixture sit overnight or at least 6 hours until the flavors have married. Enjoy!
• 12. Here is how it looks!
• 13. Cook's Tip: Usually, I make this recipe as a hot potato side dish, and then make what is leftover into a potato salad to be used the next day.
• 14. Yummy! Want a bite?

LEMON-DIJON POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan. Cover them with cold water and add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender but still hold their shape, about 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the lemon juice, mustard, shallot, honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender. Blend until smooth. With the blender running, slowly drizzle in the oil.
• When the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and tap out any excess water so the potatoes are as dry as possible. Transfer the warm potatoes to a large bowl. Add the diced celery, vinaigrette, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and toss to combine. Garnish with the celery leaves and lemon zest. Serve warm or at room temperature.

• Cut potatoes into 1/4-inch-thick slices (remove skin, if desired). Place in large bowl; add celery. Drizzle dressing over; toss gently to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and chill until cold, at least 2 hours. DO AHEAD: Pancetta and potato salad can be made 1 day ahead. Cover pancetta; chill. Keep potato salad chilled. Bring pancetta to room temperature before continuing.

LEMON POTATO SALAD WITH MINT

Steps:

• Place whole unpeeled potatoes in a large pot with enough salted water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until potatoes are just tender, 15 to 25 minutes depending upon size. Drain and cut potatoes into 1 1/2-inch chunks as soon as you can handle them.
• In a bowl, whisk together lemon juice, salt and olive oil.
• Transfer hot potatoes to a large bowl and toss with dressing, scallions, mint and Turkish pepper. Let cool to room temperature, or refrigerate until ready to use. Just before serving, top with additional lemon juice, scallions, mint and Turkish pepper.

BONNIE'S LEMON PEPPER POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. PREPARE THE POTATOES: Wash the potatoes and cut away any unsightly blemishes or eyes but leave some of the red skin on the potatoes. Cut the potatoes in half. Place the cleaned potatoes in a pan with a tight fitting lid, cover with water, add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water and bring to a boil, and cook potatoes until tender when tested with a fork. Drain the potatoes in a colander. Keep them hot while you make the lemon pepper butter.
• 2. MAKE THE LEMON PEPPER BUTTER: Place the hot pan you used to boil the potatoes in back on the burner on medium low heat. Add the butter, lemon pepper, garlic, lemon juice. Mix well, get it hot and then add the potatoes to the pan carefully, turning them over very gently to coat with the lemon pepper butter. Season with the salt and pepper, and add the green onions, turn one more time and serve. Enjoy!
• 3. Cook's Tip: This dish comes together very fast as soon as the potatoes are drained. You can buy yourself some time by leaving the potatoes in the hot water until you are almost ready to serve. Then drain and add potatoes to the butter as directed below.

BONNIE'S MEXICAN POTATO SALAD
