These Grilled Potatoes are crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and packed with smoky, savory flavor. A simple seasoning blend and the high heat of the grill turn everyday potatoes into a mouthwatering side dish that’s perfect for cookouts, BBQs, or weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold or red potatoes, sliced into ½-inch rounds
  • 23 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika (or smoked paprika for extra flavor)
  • 1 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, or rosemary, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates.
  2. Slice potatoes into ½-inch rounds.
  3. In a large bowl, toss potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Place potato slices directly on the grill grates or use a grill pan.
  5. Grill for 4–5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and fork-tender.
  6. Remove from grill and sprinkle with fresh herbs, if using. Serve warm.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add Parmesan and lemon zest after grilling.
  • Spice it up with cayenne or chipotle powder.
  • Use baby potatoes halved or quartered for variety.
  • Grill in foil for easier cleanup—just adjust cooking time to 20 minutes, flipping halfway.
  • Parboiling potatoes for 8 minutes can speed up grilling and ensure tenderness.
