Ingredients
- 5 red potatoes, halved then cut into thirds
- 1 white onion, cut into 3 thick rings
- 1 red onion, cut into 3 thick rings
- 4 meyer lemons, halved
- 1 red bell pepper, halved, pith removed, and quartered
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 sprig rosemary
- 2 teaspoon kewpie mayonnaise
- 1 bunch chives, minced
- 1 bunch arugula
Directions
- Preheat a gas grill on high heat.
- Place the potatoes, onions, Meyer lemons, and bell pepper in a bowl, drizzle 2 teaspoons of the olive oil over everything, and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Scatter the potatoes on the grill. If you have a second grill level above the grill, put the onions, lemons, and bell pepper there. If not, put them around the outside parts of the grill where the temperature is a bit lower.
- Place the rosemary over the potatoes and cook for about 10-11 minutes, then remove the lemon halves and turn the potatoes twice within the next 8-10 minutes. Then, transfer to a large bowl.
- Squeeze out the juice from the grilled lemons into a small bowl and reserve until cool. Then mix in the Kewpie mayonnaise and remaining olive oil to compose a simple dressing. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Quarter each piece of grilled potato, and chop the onions and red pepper. When all components are cool, toss them together with the chives and 1/2 of the dressing.
- Dress the arugula with the rest of the dressing. When everything is cool, toss everything together and serve.
