Ingredients
  

Potatoes
  • 4 medium Yukon gold or red potatoes Fresh potatoes, avoid super-starchy types.
Seasoning and oil

  • 1 teaspoon salt To taste.
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper To taste.

Preparation

  2. Cut potatoes into half-inch slices or chunky wedges.
  3. Toss the potato slices with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional seasonings.
Grilling
  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Lay a sheet of foil on a corner of the grill to prevent sticking.
  3. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the grill.
  4. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, flipping carefully with tongs.
