Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup fresh chives
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Cut any larger potatoes in half to ensure even cooking while keeping smaller ones whole.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a generous pinch of salt. Add the potatoes and parboil for 6-8 minutes, or until you can pierce them with a fork but they remain slightly firm. Drain the potatoes and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the parboiled potatoes and toss until they are well-coated in the seasoning mixture.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Place the seasoned potatoes directly onto the hot grill or thread them onto skewers, if desired, for easier handling. Grill the potatoes for 10-15 minutes, turning frequently, until they are golden-brown and have delicious grill marks.
While the potatoes are grilling, finely chop the fresh chives. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat and stir in the chopped chives. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the potatoes are grilled to perfection, transfer them to a serving platter and drizzle the melted chive butter generously over the top. Garnish with additional fresh chives, if desired.
Serve the grilled chive potatoes immediately as a flavorful side dish to your favorite grilled proteins or salads.
