Grilled Potatoes w/ Lemon-Garlic-Chive Aioli

These potatoes are pretty darn good. You could consider it a very easy Potato Salad without all the fuss. I don't usually measure much out when I am cooking, so with this I typically use more mayo than I have listed here. The potatoes will really absorb everything, and I like lots of flavor and sauce. So you can do what ever you want with this. I also made it with dill for a reunion last weekend due to the fact that I forgot to cut some chives before I headed to my brothers house. It turned out great with the dill! I also didn't put them on the grill for the reunion because of the lack of grill space and time, and they still turned out great. So just do whatever you want with it.


3 pounds small new potatoes (do not peel)
3/4 cup Mayo (I use more)
2 tsp chopped garlic (I use the stuff already chopped in the jar)
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper
3 Tbs olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped chives


In a large pot of salted water, boil the potatoes until just cooked through but not completely soft, 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the size. Drain immediately and set aside to cool.

Combine the mayo, garlic, lemon juice, chives salt, and pepper in a bowl and whisk together until smooth.

Cut potatoes in half & brush with oil. Grill the potatoes cut side down until golden brown and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.

Mix potatoes with aioli.

This can be made in advance and re-heated if needed.
