Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Baby potatoes
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium heat, approximately 375°F to 400°F.
Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into halves. If they are larger, cut them into quarters to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potato halves to the bowl and toss them gently until they are evenly coated with the spice and oil mixture.
Prepare a grill basket or use heavy-duty aluminum foil to make a pouch. Place the potatoes inside the basket or pouch, ensuring they are in a single layer for even grilling.
Place the grill basket or pouch onto the preheated grill. Cover the grill and cook for about 10 minutes.
Carefully open the grill and use tongs to gently turn or shake the potatoes. This helps them cook evenly.
Cover and continue to grill for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork and have a nice golden-brown color.
Remove the potatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving dish.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the grilled potatoes before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your low-fat perfectly grilled potatoes!
