Ingredients

Directions

Put the potatoes in a pot of salted cold water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender, but still firm, 12 to15 minutes. Drain and let cool before cutting each potato in 1/2-inch-thick slices.

While the potatoes are cooking, combine the vinegar, garlic, mustard, basil and 1/2 cup of the oil in a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat your grill to medium.

Brush the potato slices on both sides with the remaining 1/4 cup oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the potatoes on the grill, close the cover, and grill until lightly golden brown and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side.

Carefully transfer the potatoes to a flat surface. Make stacks by layering the following: 1 slice potato, 1 tablespoon goat cheese, 1 slice potato, 1 tablespoon goat cheese, 1 slice potato. Place the stacks back on the grill, close the cover, and grill until the cheese begins to melt, about 1 minute.

Transfer the potatoes to a platter, drizzle some of the vinaigrette on and around the potatoes, and sprinkle with the chives.

    I love the way the tangy dressing and smooth creamy melted softened goat cheese compliment the slightly sweet red potatoes. Presentation is very charming too. I grilled the potatoes inside on my cast iron gril with slats. Would be a great recipe for a nice small dinner party--sure to impress your guests. I paired this with a Grilled then backed Chicken breast stuffed with Goat cheese/Sundried tomatoes, and a nice spring salad with the remaining Balsamic vinegar dressing from this recipe. Thanks Bobby.

    I loved the combinations of flavors, and the ease of the prep. The only change I made was using grilled garlic flat bread vs the chips.

    I liked how easy it was to prepare. I cooked mine in a grill pan and they came out great! The vinaigrette looked a bit muddy to me... did anyone else get that too? My vinaigrette did not look like the one pictured. It still tasted great!!!
