Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 lbs (907 grams) red potatoes
- 2–3 tablespoons (30–45 milliliters) olive oil
Herbs and Spices:
- 1 teaspoon rosemary
- 3/4 teaspoon oregano
- 3/4 teaspoon thyme
- 3/4 teaspoon sage
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
Seasoning:
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the grill at medium-high temperature (around 400°F) for optimal potato cooking.
- Slice red potatoes into uniform, bite-sized cubes to ensure even grilling.
- Drizzle olive oil over potato pieces, thoroughly massaging to create a uniform coating.
- Craft a robust herb blend combining rosemary, oregano, thyme, sage, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
- Generously sprinkle the herbal mixture across potatoes, gently tumbling to distribute seasonings completely.
- Transfer seasoned potatoes into a specialized grill basket or arrange directly on clean grill grates.
- Monitor potatoes during 20-25 minute grilling process, rotating periodically to prevent burning and encourage uniform caramelization.
- Carefully extract potatoes once they achieve a golden-brown exterior and tender interior texture.
- Plate immediately while maintaining optimal temperature and serving with preferred accompaniments.
Notes
- Use waxy red potatoes for best texture and prevent them from falling apart during grilling.
- Create uniform potato chunks to ensure even cooking and consistent browning across all pieces.
- Soak cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning to remove excess starch and help achieve crispier exterior.
- Double-wrap potatoes in aluminum foil if you prefer softer, steamed-like texture instead of crispy grilled version.
