Ingredients

  • 1 pound baby red potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 6 pieces wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.

Step 2

Wash and scrub the baby red potatoes thoroughly. If they are larger than bite-sized, cut them in half or quarters to ensure uniform cooking.

Step 3

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and parboil them for 6-8 minutes until they are just fork-tender but not fully cooked. Drain and let them cool slightly.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, dried rosemary, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.

Step 5

Add the parboiled potatoes to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the marinade.

Step 6

Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 375°F/190°C).

Step 7

Thread the marinated potatoes onto the skewers, leaving a small amount of space between each potato for even cooking.

Step 8

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown with a slight char and fully tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 9

Remove from the grill and serve immediately as a side dish or appetizer.
