Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fresh green beans and cook for about 3 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender. Transfer to a bowl of ice water immediately.
  2. In a separate pot, add quartered Yukon Gold potatoes, baking soda, and salt. Cover with water and bring to a gentle boil, simmer for 10-12 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and shake gently to roughen the edges.
  3. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, drizzle with olive oil, add parboiled potatoes, and roast for about 40 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, chopped herbs, minced garlic, honey, salt, and pepper in a jar. Secure lid and shake vigorously to mix well.
  5. On a platter, layer blanched green beans, crispy potatoes, red onion, Kalamata olives, and feta cheese. Drizzle with dressing and toss gently if desired.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy with grilled meats or as a standalone meal.
