Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (chopped)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Scrub the potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt or debris. Then, pierce each potato several times with a fork.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the seasoning mixture.
- Tear off 4 large sheets of aluminum foil, each about 12 inches long.
- Place one potato in the center of each foil sheet. Drizzle the seasoning mixture over the potatoes, making sure to coat them evenly on all sides.
- Fold the foil over the potatoes and crimp the edges to create a sealed packet. Repeat this process for each potato.
- Place the foil packets on the preheated grill and close the lid. Cook for about 25-30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Flip the packets halfway through cooking to ensure even heat distribution.
- Carefully remove the foil packets from the grill using tongs. Allow the potatoes to cool slightly before opening the packets.
- Serve the grilled potatoes in foil as a delicious side dish. You can optionally top them with additional chopped herbs for added freshness and flavor.
- Enjoy!
