Grilled Baby Potatoes Food

BALSAMIC GRILLED BABY POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Place a 24-inch long piece of aluminum foil on a flat work surface. Spread potatoes onto the middle of the foil. Drizzle vinegar and olive oil over the potatoes; season with onion powder, salt, and pepper. Dot the top of the potatoes with small chunks of butter.
• Bring opposing sides of the foil up and around the potatoes. Fold the two edges together at the top to create a seam on the top of the packet. Fold the remaining two edges to seal the packet.
• Cook potatoes in the packet on the preheated grill with the seam-side facing up for about 10 minutes, turn and cook another 10 minutes. Turn the packet once again and continue cooking until a fork stuck through the foil and into the potatoes meet no resistance from the contents, about 5 minutes more.

GRILLED BABY POTATOES

• Place potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Add teaspoon of salt and place on high heat until potatoes come to a boil. Continue cooking for 10-15 minutes until potatoes are cooked through.
• Drain potatoes and let rest until cool enough to handle.
• Place olive oil, garlic and rosemary in a small bowl. Microwave for 15-20 seconds, just to until the garlic is fragrant.
• Skewer 4 potatoes on a wooden skewer.
• Brush all sides of potatoes with prepared olive oil.
• Place skewers on a preheated grill. (I start my gas grill on high heat for approximately 10 minutes before grilling. Then turn to medium high heat when grilling.)
• Turn potatoes with tongs every 2-3 minutes until the potatoes are heated through, approximately 6-12 minutes.
• Sprinkle with coarse sea salt before serving

LEMON AND GARLIC GRILLED BABY POTATOES

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into small chunks.
• In a bowl, toss the potatoes with oil, garlic, bay leaves, oregano, salt and pepper. Squeeze lemon juice onto the potatoes, then place the rind halves on top. (Can pre-cook potatoes in microwave for about 5 minutes) (May need to add more olive oil)
• Preheat grill. Place potatoes in a small roasting pan or double thickness tin foil pans that have been sprayed with Pam, add the potatoes. Place on grill. Cook until tender, 20 - 30 minutes, stirring so all pieces cook evenly.
• Remove from heat. Remove lemon rind and bay leaves. Add butter and dill and incorporate evenly. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Note: Instead of fresh herbs, you can use 1 tsp dried.

GRILLED BABY POTATOES

Steps:

• Cover potatoes by 1 inch in cold water in a 4-quart pot, then add 1 tablespoon kosher salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are just tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Drain potatoes in a colander and transfer to a large shallow pan to cool quickly.
• If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 1 to 2 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderately high.
• Meanwhile, toss potatoes with 1 tablespoon oil and remaining teaspoon kosher salt, then push 2 or 3 potatoes onto each rosemary stem.
• Grill potato skewers directly over coals, turning over occasionally with tongs, until grill marks appear, 3 to 4 minutes total.
• Transfer potatoes to a platter and drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons oil.

GRILLED POTATOES WITH CHIPOTLE YOGURT

Steps:

• For the chipotle yogurt sauce: Combine the yogurt, cilantro, mint, lime juice and chipotle in a medium bowl and season with salt. Mix until well blended. Place in fridge until ready to use.
• For the potatoes: Combine the potatoes, thyme and garlic in a large pot with water covering the potatoes by 2 inches. Season the water with 1/2 cup kosher salt. Bring the potatoes to a simmer and cook until just tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Drain and allow to cool to room temperature.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high. Thread the potatoes on skewers with a bay leaf at each end, if using. Drizzle with the extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Grill the potatoes until charred on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Serve with the chipotle sauce and garnish with additional cilantro.

GRILLED RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• In a microwave-safe casserole dish, add the potatoes in a single layer. Cover with a damp paper towel and microwave until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, salt, smoked paprika and black pepper.
• Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes and toss to coat well. Add the spice mixture, rosemary and thyme and toss gently to coat.
• Add the potatoes to the grill cut-side down and cook until grill marks form, about 4 minutes. Flip and cook for 3 more minutes. Garnish with the parsley.

QUICK AND EASY GRILLED POTATOES

Steps:

• Poke each potato with the tines of a fork. Place the potatoes in a microwave oven, and cook on high power for about 5 minutes. Check about halfway through, and turn potatoes over for even cooking. Slice each potato in half the long way and cook potatoes another 2 minutes on high power.
• Preheat a grill for medium heat.
• Brush the potato tops with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook on prepared grill for 15 to 20 minutes, turning once.

GRILLED BABY POTATOES WITH MOJO VERDE SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil the potatoes: Scrub the potatoes and place them in a large pot of salted water. Place on the stove over high heat and bring to a boil. Cook for 8-10 minutes, until just fork tender (they shouldn't be 100% cooked). Remove from heat and run under cold water. Set aside to cool the rest of the way.
• Make the mojo verde: Add all ingredients to the bowl of a small food processor. Puree. Taste and add additional salt if desired. If it seems too acid, you can add a bit of sugar or honey as noted in the ingredients to tame it. Note: I have made the sauce in my blender as well, but I find there's not quite enough sauce to blend well. Another option is to double or triple the sauce and then refrigerate the remainder for later on.
• Grill the potatoes. Preheat your grill on medium-high, about 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Slice the potatoes in half and place in a medium bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss gently.
• Lay potatoes flat-side down on the grill. Cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side. Test with a fork to make sure they're tender. Transfer potatoes from grill back to the bowl. Pour the sauce over the top. Toss to coat. Sprinkle with additional cilantro leaves and serve.
