Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds red potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter (optional)
- 1 sheet parchment paper or aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).
Wash the red potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt, then cut them into quarters. If the potatoes are small, you may only need to halve them.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato pieces with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the potatoes.
Place a large sheet of parchment paper or aluminum foil on a flat surface. Transfer the seasoned potatoes onto the center of the sheet and spread them into an even layer.
Fold the edges of the parchment paper or foil to create a sealed packet. Ensure the packet is tightly closed to trap steam during cooking.
Carefully place the potato packet onto the preheated grill grates. Close the grill lid and cook for 20-25 minutes, flipping the packet halfway through. The potatoes should be tender and slightly caramelized when done.
Using tongs, carefully remove the potato packet from the grill and allow it to cool for 2-3 minutes before opening.
Transfer the grilled potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped chives. If desired, melt butter over the hot potatoes for extra richness.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Garlic Chive Grilled Red Potatoes!
