Ingredients
2poundsmini Yukon gold potatoes,rinsed, dried, and halved
2tablespoonsextra virgin olive oil
1teaspoongarlic powder
1teaspoondried thyme
1teaspoondried rosemary
salt and fresh ground black pepper,to taste
chopped fresh parsley,for garnish
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high.
Cut 4 large pieces of foil and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
Divide the potatoes between the foils.
Fold the sides of the foil over the potatoes, covering them completely; seal the packets closed.
Place the foil packets on the grill and cook until tender, about 20 to 30 minutes, turning once. Pierce with a fork to check for doneness.
Remove from grill and carefully open up each packet.
You can change up the flavors of your grilled potatoes by trying different spices like paprika, dill, or parsley.
For a cheesy twist, add some shredded cheddar or parmesan near the end of grilling.
To make the dish heartier, put in some chopped bacon or ham before you grill.
You can also add more veggies, like bell peppers, onions, or zucchini.
If you like softer potatoes, keep them in the foil the whole time. For crispier potatoes, open the foil near the end. If you're in a hurry, you can boil the potatoes a bit before grilling.
Don't forget to add plenty of seasoning before wrapping them in foil. Potatoes need a good amount of salt.
These potato packets can also be prepared in the oven at 425˚F for about 15 to 20 minutes or until fork tender.
