Very good change up, Cali style. Good for a grillin' day.
What you need
- 2 tablespoons canola oil, plus more for the grill
- 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes (5 to 6 potatoes)
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika

- 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 2 teaspoons chopped capers
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
Instructions
- Preheat a grill to medium. Oil the grill grates well.
- Slice the potatoes lengthwise about 3/4 inch thick. Place the potatoes in a bowl and add 2 tablespoons canola oil, the paprika and 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper. Toss to coat.

- Fold the mayonnaise mixture into the potato mixture until coated. Cover and refrigerate 20 to 30 minutes. Stir and adjust the seasoning as needed.
