Name: Grilled Kielbasa with Warm Potato Salad
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: Makes 4 (main course) servings
Ingredients: 2 pounds small red boiling potatoes, halved or quartered if large; 1/2 cup finely chopped sweet onion; 3 tablespoons olive oil; 2 tablespoons cider vinegar; 1/4 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley; 1 pound smoked kielbasa; grainy mustard

This is a great excuse to get outside and grill—and an even better excuse to have smoky kielbasa for dinner. A vinegary potato salad adds a welcome note of acidity while making this a meal in itself.

Cooks' note:

Kielbasa can be grilled in a hot lightly oiled large (2-burner) ridged grill pan over medium-high heat.
