Ingredients:

  • 1¾ pounds fingerling potatoes, halved lengthwise
  • 1 tablespoons plus ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ cup (packed) chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
  • ½ cup (packed) chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 tablespoons slivered almonds, chopped walnuts, or pine nuts
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. In a medium bowl, toss potatoes with 1 tablespoon oil to coat; season generously with salt and pepper. Spread potato halves in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast potatoes, turning occasionally, until tender and golden brown,25-30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, combine 1/2 cup chives, parsley, almonds, and garlic in a processor. Pulse until finely chopped. With machine running, gradually add remaining oil through feed tube and process until incorporated. Transfer chive pesto to a small bowl. Stir in lemon juice, then 2 tablespoons water. Season pesto with salt and pepper.
