Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. You can peel them if you prefer, but leaving the skin on adds extra texture and nutrients.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized wedges or chunks for uniform cooking.
2. Prepare the Herb Mixture:
- Mince the garlic cloves finely.
- Chop the fresh parsley finely.
- Zest the lemon and set the zest aside. Then, cut the lemon in half and juice it, reserving both the zest and juice.
- In a large bowl, combine the minced garlic, chopped parsley, and lemon zest.
- Add the olive oil to the bowl and squeeze in the lemon juice. Stir well to combine, ensuring an even mixture.
- Add the potato wedges or chunks to the bowl with the herb mixture.
- Toss the potatoes thoroughly to coat them evenly with the herb and oil mixture.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill basket or a grill tray, oil it lightly to prevent sticking.
- Place the coated potato wedges or chunks on the preheated grill or in the grill basket/tray in a single layer.
- Grill the potatoes for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure they cook evenly and develop a nice, crispy exterior. They should be tender on the inside when done.
- Remove the grilled herb potatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
- Optionally, garnish with a little extra chopped parsley and a sprinkle of salt to taste.
- Serve these flavorful grilled herb potatoes as a delicious side dish with your favorite grilled meats, fish, or vegetables. Enjoy!
Tips:
- For even cooking, ensure the potato slices are of similar thickness.
- Use fresh parsley for the best flavor; dried parsley won't give the same aromatic punch.
- If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, you can adjust the garlic quantity according to your taste.
- Marinate the potatoes for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to mix thoroughly.
- Make sure your grill is preheated to medium-high before adding the potatoes to achieve a nice char without burning.
