Start by washing the potatoes thoroughly. You can peel them if desired, but leaving the skin on adds extra texture.
Slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Try to keep them uniform for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme. Add the lemon juice and water to the bowl and mix well to form a marinade.
Add the sliced potatoes to the bowl, and toss them in the marinade until they are well coated.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).
Place the potato slices directly on the grill grates. Grill for about 15 minutes on one side, then flip them over using a spatula.
Continue grilling for another 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and have nice grill marks.
Check doneness by piercing a potato slice with a fork; it should glide through easily.
Remove the potatoes from the grill and let them cool slightly before serving. The flavors will continue to develop as they rest.
Serve the grilled potatoes warm as a delicious low-sodium side dish to complement your grilled entrees.
