Ingredients

    2-1/2 pounds small red potatoes
    1 medium onion, cut into 1/2-inch slices
    1/2 cup olive oil, divided
    1 teaspoon salt, divided
    1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided
    3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    2 teaspoons sugar
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    1/4 cup minced fresh tarragon


Directions

    Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10 minutes. Drain; cool slightly. Cut each in half.
    In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, onion, 1/4 cup oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; toss to coat. Arrange cut sides down on a grilling grid; place on a grill rack. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 8-10 minutes or until vegetables are tender and lightly browned, turning occasionally. Chop onion. Place onion and potatoes in bowl.
    In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, sugar, garlic and remaining oil, salt and pepper. Add to potato mixture; toss to coat. Sprinkle with tarragon. Serve warm or at room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers. Yield: 9 servings.

    Editor's Note: If you do not have a grilling grid, use a disposable foil pan. Poke holes in the bottom of the pan with a meat fork to allow any liquid to drain.
