Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prick potatoes with fork tines. Bake potatoes in preheated oven until tender, but do not overcook. Cool.
Cut potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes. Place potato cubes in a large bowl. Add remaining salad ingredients, except for cilantro and parsley. Toss with about 3/4 cup Citrus Dressing.
Cover and refrigerate, at least, one hour.
Just before serving, stir in pecans. Garnish each portion with a sprinkling of cilantro and parsley.
