Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
Directions
- Preheat the grill to medium heat.
- Wash and scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt or debris. Leave the skin on for added texture and flavor.
- Cut the potatoes into evenly-sized cubes or wedges.
- Place the potato cubes in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat the potatoes with the oil.
- In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well to create a spice blend.
- Sprinkle the spice blend over the potatoes and toss to evenly coat them with the spices.
- Place the seasoned potatoes in a grill basket or on a foil-lined grill pan. Spread them out in a single layer to ensure even cooking.
- Grill the potatoes over medium heat for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy, tossing occasionally to prevent burning.
- Remove the grilled home fries from the grill and transfer them to a serving dish.
- Serve hot and enjoy as a side dish or with your favorite grilled meats.
