Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds red potato, small
- vegetable oil, for grill
- fresh chives, chopped, for optional garnish
Directions
-
Soak 7-8 wooden skewers in water, if needed, or use metal ones.
-
Clean the potatoes and parboil for 4-5 minutes. Transfer potatoes into large bowl and let cool.
-
Meanwhile, place 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Once garlic begins to turn translucent (~3 minutes), remove pan from heat. Set aside for later.
-
Preheat grill to high heat.
-
Once potatoes have been parboiled, slice each one in half. (If potatoes are larger in size, then you may need to quarter them.)
-
Skewer potatoes and brush with remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
-
Turn burners on one half of grill off. (If using charcoal, just push lit charcoal to one side of grill.)
-
Brush grill grates with vegetable oil and place skewered potatoes cut-side down over the lit burners. Grill potatoes for 2-3 minutes, flip and grill for 2-3 more minutes.
-
Transfer potatoes to the unlit side of the grill. Close cover and allow potatoes to cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until they can be easily pierced with a fork.
-
Remove potatoes from grill and brush with the garlic and rosemary olive oil mixture. Garnish with fresh chives before serving (optional).
