Ingredients

1/3 cup olive or vegetable oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil
1 small red bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup pitted ripe olives

Steps:

In tightly covered container, shake all vinaigrette ingredients.
In 2-quart saucepan, place potatoes; add enough water just to cover potatoes. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cover and heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cook covered about 15 minutes or until potatoes are just tender; drain. Cool slightly; cut potatoes in half. Toss with 2 tablespoons oil.
Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Cover and grill potatoes over medium heat 5 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and tender.
In large bowl, toss potatoes, bell pepper, olives and vinaigrette.
