Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby red potatoes, cleaned and cut into bite-size pieces
- 6 strips bacon
- 1/2 cup finely diced green bell pepper
- 1/4 cup finely diced red onion
- chives for garnish
For the Dressing:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 3 chipotle peppers in adobo
- 1/4 cup cilantro
- 1/4 cup green onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
Method
- Add the potatoes to a large bot and cover with water. Bring the water to a boil and then add a generous sprinkle of salt. Let the potatoes boil in the salted water for 12-15 minutes or until fork tender. Drain the potatoes and let cool.
- Slice the bacon into lardons and then add it to a skillet heated over medium heat. Cook until crispy, stirring occasionally to make sure that it does not burn. Set a bit of bacon aside for garnish.
- Next, make the dressing. Add the mayonnaise, lime juice, chipotle peppers, cilantro, green onion, garlic, and salt to a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
- Now it’s time to make the potato salad. Add the cooled potatoes, bell pepper, red onion, and cooked bacon to a large mixing bowl. Pour on the chipotle dressing and stir until well combined. Give the potato salad a taste and add more salt if needed. Garnish with crispy bacon and chives. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate the potato salad before serving.
