Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Baby potatoes (halved)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary (chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (grated, optional)
• 4 sheets Aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium heat, approximately 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

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

Step 3

Tear off four sheets of aluminum foil, each approximately 12x12 inches in size.

Step 4

Divide the potato mixture evenly among the foil sheets, placing the potatoes in the center of each sheet.

Step 5

If desired, sprinkle a bit of grated Parmesan cheese over the potatoes before sealing the packets.

Step 6

Fold up the edges of each foil sheet to create a sealed packet. Ensure the packets are tightly sealed to trap steam for cooking but leave a little room inside for heat expansion.

Step 7

Place the foil packets on the preheated grill grates. Close the grill lid and cook for 25-30 minutes, flipping the packets halfway through, until the potatoes are tender and golden brown.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Transfer the grilled potatoes to serving plates or serve them directly from the foil packets for a rustic presentation.
