Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 0.5 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp butter, cut into small cubes
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. If desired, cut the potatoes in half for quicker cooking.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Cut 4 large pieces of aluminum foil (approximately 12x12 inches each). Divide the seasoned potatoes evenly among the foil sheets.

Step 5

Add a few small cubes of butter to each portion of potatoes, distributing them evenly across the piles.

Step 6

Fold the edges of the foil upwards and crimp them together to create tightly sealed packets.

Step 7

Place the foil packets on the preheated grill and close the lid. Cook the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, flipping the packets halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Step 8

Carefully remove the packets from the grill. Allow them to cool slightly before opening, as the steam will be very hot.

Step 9

Garnish the grilled potatoes with freshly chopped parsley before serving and enjoy as a side dish with your favorite grilled meats or vegetables.
