Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 units garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • 8 units wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and boil them in a pot of salted water for 10-12 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Drain and allow to cool slightly.

Step 2

While the potatoes are cooling, prepare the marinade. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, cumin, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Add the cooked baby potatoes to the marinade. Toss to coat them evenly, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let the potatoes marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor.

Step 4

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during cooking. If using metal skewers, they are ready to use.

Step 5

Thread the marinated potatoes onto the skewers, leaving enough space between each potato to ensure even cooking.

Step 6

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium heat. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) if baking.

Step 7

Grill the potato skewers for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and lightly charred. If baking, arrange the skewers on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 8

Once cooked, transfer the kabobs to a serving platter. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish.

Step 9

Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer alongside tzatziki sauce or a fresh Greek salad.
