Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds small-to-medium red potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Start by cleaning your grill grates and preheat the grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).
Wash the red potatoes thoroughly under running water. Cut them in half for even grilling.
In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the halved potatoes and boil them for about 10 minutes or until they are just tender but not falling apart. Drain and let them cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until fully blended.
Add the par-boiled potatoes to the mixing bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the seasoned oil mixture.
Using tongs, place the coated potatoes cut side down directly onto the hot grill grates.
Grill the potatoes for about 8-10 minutes per side, or until they develop beautiful grill marks and become crispy on the outside.
Remove the grilled potatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley before serving for an added touch of flavor and color.
Serve warm as a delicious side dish or a main course. Enjoy your perfectly grilled potatoes!
