Kale and Roasted-Potato Salad image

Although kale is available year-round, it's typically sweetest from midwinter through spring. Related to broccoli and cauliflower, kale is loaded with many of the same cancer-fighting phytochemicals. Potatoes offer complex carbohydrates and generous doses of potassium, iron, and vitamin B6. Leave the skin on for extra fiber.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds small potatoes, such as Red Bliss or fingerling, sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 red onion (10 ounces), halved and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons juice (from 2 lemons)
1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
1 pound kale, trimmed, cut into large pieces (about 16 cups), and rinsed well, water still clinging to leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Combine potatoes, onion slices, 1 tablespoon oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with pepper, and toss. Spread mixture in a single layer (use a second sheet if necessary). Roast, stirring potatoes and scraping bottom of sheet about every 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until potatoes are brown and crisp, 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Combine mustard and lemon zest and juice in a bowl. Heat remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic, and cook, stirring constantly, until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add kale, and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 6 minutes. Add mustard-lemon mixture; toss to coat. Cook until heated through. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt, and season with pepper. Toss with potatoes.
