How to Make Antipasto With New Potatoes
- Wash and scrub 1 pound of new potatoes. Cut any larger potatoes in half.
- Boil potatoes in lightly salted water until almost tender (about 10-12 minutes). Add 1 cup chopped carrots during the last 3 minutes of cooking.
- Drain potatoes and carrots and let cool slightly.
- Quarter the cooled potatoes.
- In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, carrots, 1 cup chopped broccoli florets, and 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives.
- **Prepare the Marinade:** In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes.
- Pour 3/4 of the marinade over the vegetable mixture. Toss gently to coat.
- In a separate bowl, combine 8 ounces crumbled feta cheese with the remaining 1/4 of the marinade. Toss to coat.
- Transfer vegetable mixture and cheese to separate resealable bags. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, turning bags occasionally.
- To serve, line a platter with fresh lettuce leaves.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the marinated vegetables to the platter.
- If desired, arrange 4 ounces thinly sliced salami (folded into quarters) on the platter.
- Arrange the marinated feta cheese artfully amongst the vegetables.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
