QUICK AND EASY GRILLED POTATOES

Steps:

• Poke each potato with the tines of a fork. Place the potatoes in a microwave oven, and cook on high power for about 5 minutes. Check about halfway through, and turn potatoes over for even cooking. Slice each potato in half the long way and cook potatoes another 2 minutes on high power.
• Preheat a grill for medium heat.
• Brush the potato tops with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook on prepared grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once.

GRILLED CHEESY POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high, or oven to 425°F.
• Place the potatoes in the center of a large piece of aluminum foil or in a bowl.
• Pour the melted butter evenly over the potatoes, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
• Sprinkle on half of the cheddar cheese.
• Wrap the potatoes tightly in the aluminum foil and place on the preheated grill, or in the oven.
• Cook for 15 minutes, then flip the packet and cook for an addition 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender.
• Open the top of the foil packet and sprinkle on the remaining cheddar cheese.
• Leave the packet open and place it back on the grill, or in the oven. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
• Top with the minced herbs, if desired.
