Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). If you are using an oven, preheat to the same temperature.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Cube the potatoes into 1-inch pieces to ensure even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Add the cubed potatoes to the bowl and toss them until all pieces are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Lay out a large piece of aluminum foil and transfer the seasoned potatoes to the center of the foil.
Dot the potatoes with small pieces of butter for added flavor and richness.
Fold the foil into a packet by bringing two opposite sides together and rolling them down on top of the potatoes. Fold the remaining edges tightly to seal the packet.
Place the foil packet on the grill or in the oven and cook for about 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Shake or flip the packet gently halfway through cooking to ensure even heat distribution.
Once cooked, carefully open the foil packet to release steam. Scatter the chopped fresh parsley over the hot potatoes before serving.
Serve immediately as a delightful side or enjoy as a hearty snack.
