Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs red potatoes
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and scrub the red potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt.
Cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces, roughly 1-inch cubes, to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato pieces with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.
Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 375-400°F). If desired, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the seasoned potato pieces in a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Fold the edges of the foil together to seal the packet tightly.
Place the foil packet on the preheated grill. Close the lid and cook for 20-25 minutes, turning the packet halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Carefully remove the foil packet from the grill using tongs. Open the packet cautiously to avoid steam burns.
Transfer the grilled potatoes to a serving dish. Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve warm as a side dish, and enjoy!
