1 cup chopped shallots (about 5 large)
1/2 cup olive oil

1 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, divided
4 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

    Add potatoes to large pot of boiling salted water. Cook 6 minutes and drain. Toss potatoes with shallots, oil, salt, and pepper in large bowl to coat. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cool slightly, then cover and refrigerate.)
