Ingredients

  • 4 large Russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the grill to medium heat, or about 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut each potato into 8 wedges. To do this, cut the potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4 equal-sized wedges.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a seasoning blend.

Step 4

Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss until all the wedges are evenly coated with the seasoning blend.

Step 5

Prepare a grill-safe mat or basket to prevent the potatoes from sticking and place the coated wedges on the grill.

Step 6

Grill the potato wedges for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally until they are golden brown and cooked through, with grill marks on all sides.

Step 7

Once grilled, remove the potato wedges from the grill and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for garnish before serving.

Step 8

Serve the grilled potato wedges warm as a side dish to your favorite heart-healthy entree.
