- Cook sweet potatoes in large saucepan of boiling salted water until just barely tender (this is important otherwise the potatoes will fall apart on the grill or when you toss them in the salad), about 6 minutes. Drain; run under cold water to cool. Cover and chill at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
- Preheat barbecue (high heat). Brush potato wedges with canola oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill potatoes until grill marks appear, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer potatoes to work surface. Cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces. Place potatoes, poblanos, bell peppers green onions, and parsley in large bowl. Drizzle dressing over; toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.
