NOTE: 81% of the RDA for beta-carotene. Beta-carotene is touted as a cancer fighter and an antiager. This main-dish salad provides a hefty dose.
1. In a large kettle, bring potatoes and enough salted cold water to cover to a boil. Cook for about 6 minutes, or until tender. Drain potatoes in a colander, return them to the pan and place over high heat, shaking the pan, for 30 seconds, or until excess liquid is evaporated.
2. Meanwhile, whisk together chutney, chicken broth, scallions, vinegar, oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl until well combined.
3. Transfer potatoes to the bowl with chutney mixture. Stir in bacon and cilantro. Serve over greens.
