Rinse the baby potatoes thoroughly and boil them in salted water until they are just fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and allow them to cool slightly.
While the potatoes are boiling, prepare the marinade by finely mincing the garlic and chiles. Combine them in a mixing bowl with paprika, smoked chili powder, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, use a fork to gently poke holes on their surface to allow the marinade to seep in.
Add the boiled potatoes to the marinade, and toss until they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and let the potatoes marinate for 10-15 minutes. If you have extra time, refrigerate for up to 1 hour for deeper flavor.
Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat (about 200°C/400°F).
Thread the marinated potatoes onto the soaked wooden skewers, ensuring the potatoes are snug but not crowded to allow even cooking.
Place the kebabs on the grill, turning occasionally, and cook for 8-10 minutes until golden brown with slight char marks. If baking, place the skewers on a lined baking tray and roast for 15-20 minutes, turning midway through.
Remove from the grill or oven, and sprinkle the kebabs with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Serve immediately with a side of yogurt dip or a refreshing salad.
