Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F).

Step 2

Rinse the baby potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. If using larger potatoes, cut them into 1-inch chunks for even cooking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.

Step 4

Tear off four sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil, each about 12x18 inches in size. For extra security, you can double-layer the foil.

Step 5

Divide the seasoned potatoes evenly onto the center of each foil sheet.

Step 6

Fold each foil packet by bringing the longer sides together above the potatoes and folding them over tightly, leaving some space inside for steam. Then fold the shorter edges up to seal the packet completely.

Step 7

Place the foil packets directly on the grill grates. Close the grill lid and cook for 20-25 minutes, flipping the packets halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.

Step 8

Carefully remove the foil packets from the grill using tongs. Open them cautiously to avoid the hot steam.

Step 9

Garnish the grilled potatoes with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
