Grilled Sweet Potato Salad

Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette:
1 tsp grated or minced lime zest
3 Tbs lime juice
1 Tbs white wine vinegar
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbs chopped cilantro
2 cloves garlic, minced
salt to taste

Sweet Potatoes:
2 lb sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 3/8-inch thick
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 scallions, white and tender green parts, sliced
3 Tbs orange, mango or pineapple juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1) Prepare medium-low charcoal fire, or preheat gas grill (or boiler).
2) To make cilantro-lime vinaigrette: Combine lime zest, juice and vinegar in large bowl. Whisk in oil until completely blended. Stir in cilantro, garlic and salt.
3) To make sweet potatoes: Add potato slices to vinaigrette, and let marinate a few minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer potato slices to grill. Turn occasionally, basting with remaining vinaigrette, and cook until tender when pierced with fork, 10 to 15 minutes.

Review: Yum. I made this for our grilling adventure today. My mother-in-law is visiting. Mike grilled a big steak that the two of them shared. I made these sweet potatoes (Mike grilled them) and the below sugar snap pea salad. We also had a Costco broccoli salad, which my mother-in-law loves and can no longer find at her local Costco. I'd say it was a great grilling adventure.
