  • Total Time: 65 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb crispy baby gold or yellow potatoes
  • 1 lb crispy baby red potatoes
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced dill pickles
  • 1/4 cup minced red onions
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 2 tbsp chopped chives
  • 1/2 cup creamy Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup flavorful mayo
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp tangy Dijon mustard

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, lightly spraying it with olive oil.
  2. Wash the baby potatoes and boil them in salted water for 10 to 15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and let them cool at room temperature.
  3. Smash the cooled potatoes onto the baking tray, ensuring they are flat but still hold their shape.
  4. Drizzle the smashed potatoes with olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper, then roast for 40 to 50 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
  5. While the potatoes are roasting, mix Greek yogurt, mayo, lemon juice, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard in a bowl. Stir in diced dill pickles, minced red onions, fresh dill, parsley, and chives.
  6. Once the potatoes are roasted, allow them to cool slightly and then mix them with the dressing until well coated.

Notes

For a tangy twist, consider using sour cream instead of mayo. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
