Sweet Potato Salad with Lime Vinaigrette

If you can't find serranos, fresh jalapenos will work.

      • 2 pounds sweet potatoes
      • 1 cup sliced red onion, slices cut into half-moons
      • 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
      • 1 teaspoon grated lime zest
      • 1/2 cup olive oil
      • 1/2 teaspoon salt
      • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
      • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
      • 1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic
      • 1/2 fresh serrano chile, seeded and finely chopped
 

Method

Place the potatoes in a large pot, add enough water to cover them, cover the pot with a lid, and bring to a boil.  Cook until the potatoes are pierced easily with the tip of a sharp knife, 15 to 20 minutes.  The cooking time will depend on the size of the potatoes.  Drain and let cool until you can handle them.  Peel and cut into 1/2-inch slices, then cut the slices in half.

In a large bowl, toss together the potatoes and red onion.  In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lime zest, olive oil, salt, pepper, sugar garlic, and serrano chile.  Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat.  Cover and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour and serve, or refrigerate for several hours to overnight.  Serve at room temperature.

Serves: 6
