Grilled Smoky Cheddar Potatoes Foil Pack Recipes

GRILLED POTATOES

Steps:

• Rinse and dry the potatoes (no need to peel). Cut crosswise into ½-inch slices (if your potatoes are smaller than a golf ball, you can halve or quarter them). Place in a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, stir together the rosemary, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and oregano.
• Drizzle the potatoes with the oil, then sprinkle the spices over the top. Toss to evenly coat.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high (about 375 to 400 degrees F).
• Place two large (about 22 to 24 inches long) sheets of heavy-duty foil down on a large baking sheet (you'll use the baking sheet for easy transport) so that the foil pieces are slightly overlapping down the center to create a wider sheet. Coat with non-stick spray. Spread the potatoes onto the foil in a single layer (if you prefer not to have the food touch the foil, you can add a layer of parchment in between). Place two more overlapping sheets of foil on top, then fold up the edges all the way around to seal and create a packet. Leave some space towards the top of the packet to allow the air to circulate.
• Using the baking sheet, carry the potatoes out to the grill, then with tongs slide the packet onto the grill. Cover then cook for 15 minutes.
• Carefully open the foil then use the tongs to flip the potatoes over. They should be deeply golden on the first side (if not, continue to cook them for 3 to 5 minutes more). Place the foil loosely back over the top, close the grill, and cook for 5 to 10 additional minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pieced with a fork.
• Slide the potato packet back onto the baking sheet, then transfer them to a serving bowl (or serve them right off of the foil). Serve warm, with a sprinkle of Parmesan and chopped fresh herbs as desired.
