Ingredients

  • 1 pound Baby red potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
  • 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 400°F). If using a charcoal grill, prepare the coals for indirect cooking.

Step 2

Rinse and scrub the baby red potatoes to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.

Step 3

Cut the potatoes in half, or into quarters if they are larger, to ensure even cooking.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, add the halved or quartered potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.

Step 5

Sprinkle the potatoes with garlic powder, paprika, dried rosemary, sea salt, and ground black pepper. Toss the potatoes again to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Take a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and place the seasoned potatoes in the center. Spread them out slightly to allow for even cooking.

Step 7

Fold the foil up and around the potatoes to create a sealed packet. Make sure there are no gaps to prevent any juices from escaping.

Step 8

Place the foil packet on the preheated grill. Close the grill lid and cook the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, turning the packet occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Step 9

After 20 minutes, carefully open the foil packet (watch out for steam) and check for doneness. The potatoes should be tender when pierced with a fork and lightly browned.

Step 10

Remove the foil packet from the grill and let the potatoes cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
