Categories: Potatoes

Ingredients

• 1 potato per person (any kind work, russets, red, yukon gold...)
• 1/2 small onion per person
• 1 T. butter per person, cut into pieces
• 1/4 t. salt per person
• freshly-ground black pepper
• smoked paprika
• aluminum foil

Directions

1. Tear sheets (1 per person) of aluminum foil into about 16" pieces. Fold each in half into a squar-ish..and set aside.

2. Preheat grill. Slice potatoes into pieces about 1/8-1/4" thick. Slice onions about 1/8" thick. Place 1 potato in the middle of each foil square and dot with butter pieces. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and then sprinkle generously with smoked paprika. Remember paprika is super mild, so it’s hard to add too much. Top each pile with onions.

3. Fold edges in and secure lightly. It’s important to get a good seal because the moisture will cook the potatoes and onions and you want all those yummy juices, so if it seems like there’s not quite enough foil, wrap packet in another layer.

4. Turn heat on grill to low. Place each packet on the grill. Close lid for 15 minutes. Turn and allow to cook for another 15 minutes. Remove from heat and carefully open each packet….OR you can bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 400 deg.
