Ingredients

  • 1 lb. red potatoes quartered
  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon Italian seasoning*
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • First, heat your grill to 400ºF.
  • Next, prepare red potatoes. Wash them and pat dry. Then, cut in half, and in half again to quarter them.
  • Prep onion by finely dicing. Then, place all vegetables into a large plastic gallon-sized bag.
  • Drizzle on olive oil and add spices. Seal bag and shake so that veggies get completely coated in olive oil and spices.
  • Transfer vegetables onto a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Then place another piece of foil on top. Fold the sides in, creating your foil pack. Last, use a fork to poke a few holes on the top of your foil pack.
  • Place foil pack on your heated grill over direct heat. Then, cover the grill and let cook for around 20 minutes or until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork and have reached desired consistency.

Tips & Notes

  • Italian seasoning: option to use 1 teaspoon dried basil and 1 teaspoon dried parsley instead.
  • Foil: make sure you are using a heavy-duty foil to prevent the oil from leaking into the grill. Option to use 2 pieces of foil instead.
