| 2 pounds small potatoes of any kind will work | |
| 1 lemon zest plus the juice | |
| ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil | |
| 1 clove garlic (minced) | |
| ½ cup fresh chopped mint | |
| 1 teaspoon salt | |
| 1 teaspoon black pepper | |
| 1/2 cup fresh parsley (chopped) | |
| 1/2 cup fresh mint (chopped) |
Preparation
1
In a large pot, boil the unpeeled potatoes in water until just tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
2
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into large chunks, about 1 1/2 inches.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, dry mint, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
3
Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl, add the fresh parsley and mint, and toss with the dressing until evenly coated.
Let the potato salad marinate at room temperature for about 30 minutes to an hour before serving, to allow the flavors to meld together. Enjoy!
Rana’s Notes!
If you want to pre-make this Mediterranean potato salad for easy meal prep, it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Before serving, give it a quick stir and add more dressing if needed. If you plan to store it longer, we recommend leaving out the fresh herbs and adding them right before serving. This salad is perfect for taking to work, school, or picnics, making it a great option for meal prepping.
