Wash and scrub the fingerling potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
Slice the potatoes in half lengthwise to create more surface area for grilling.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and finely chopped fresh rosemary. Mix well to form the seasoning mixture.
Add the halved potatoes to the bowl and toss them thoroughly to coat each piece with the seasoning mixture.
Preheat the grill to medium heat (about 375–400°F). If using a gas grill, ensure the grates are clean and lightly oil them to prevent sticking.
Arrange the potatoes cut-side down on the grill grates. Close the lid and grill for 12–15 minutes, undisturbed, to achieve a nice char.
Flip the potatoes over using tongs and continue grilling for another 10–12 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork and have golden, crispy edges.
Remove the potatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish with additional fresh rosemary if desired, and serve with lemon wedges for a bright, zesty finish.
