Triple-Gold Potato Salad
2-1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1" chunks
4 cloves garlic, peeled
8 scallions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 chipotle peppers packed in adobo
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 ears of corn, husked
2 yellow bell peppers, cut lengthwise into flat panels
In large pot, combine potatoes, garlic, and cold water to cover by 2". Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain, reserving garlic.
In food processor, combine garlic, scallions, lime juice, olive oil, chipotle peppers, and salt, and process until pureed. Transfer dressing to large bowl. Add hot potatoes to dressing; toss to combine.
Meanwhile, preheat broiler. Place bell peppers, skin-side up, and corn on broiler pan and broil 6 inches from heat, turning corn as it browns, for 10 minutes or until the peppers are charred and corn is lightly browned. When cool enough to handle, peel peppers and cut into 1/2" squares. With a sturdy knife, cut corn from cob.
Add peppers and corn to bowl with potatoes and toss well. Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.
