Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skins on for extra texture and nutrients.
Slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
Place the potato slices in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, dried thyme, and paprika.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the potatoes, tossing again to ensure even coverage.
Lay out a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, about 18 inches long.
Place the seasoned potatoes in the center of the foil and spread them out in a single layer.
Fold the foil into a packet by bringing the long sides together, folding them over each other to seal, then folding the ends up to secure.
Carefully place the foil packet on the preheated grill.
Grill for 20 minutes, flipping the packet halfway through, to ensure even cooking.
After 20 minutes, carefully open the foil packet to check for doneness. The potatoes should be fork-tender and slightly crispy.
If desired, transfer the potatoes directly onto the grill grates for an additional 5 minutes to crisp up the edges, monitoring closely to prevent burning.
Remove the potatoes from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
