Description

Orange juice adds zip to the dressing.

Ingredients

1 1/4 pounds slender green beans, trimmed
2 pounds small red-skinned new potatoes, quartered
8 tablespoons fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 1-pint basket cherry or teardrop tomatoes, halved
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/3 cup olive oil
6 tablespoons drained capers

Directions

  1. Cook beans in pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain. Transfer to medium bowl. Refresh under cold running water. Drain well.
  2. Cook potatoes in pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain. Transfer to large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons orange juice and 2 tablespoons vinegar; toss to coat. Cool to room temperature, occasionally stirring gently.
  3. Add green beans, tomatoes, and parsley to potatoes. Whisk remaining 6 tablespoons orange juice, 1 tablespoon vinegar, oil, and capers in small bowl to blend. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper. Add dressing to salad and toss to combine. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
