Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 6 baking potatoes, cubed
  • 1 white onion, diced
  • 3 tablespoons butter, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon parsley
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Grill:

    • Set your grill to high heat.
  2. Prepare the Potato Mixture:

    • In a large bowl, combine the cubed potatoes, diced onion, sliced butter, olive oil, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
  3. Assemble the Foil Packet:

    • Lay out a large piece of aluminum foil and spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
    • Place the potato mixture in the center of the foil.
    • Fold the foil over the potatoes and seal all edges tightly to create a packet.
  4. Grill the Potatoes:

    • Place the foil packet on the preheated grill.
    • Cook for approximately 10 minutes, then carefully flip the packet and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
  5. Add the Cheese:

    • Carefully open the foil packet to expose the potatoes.
    • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar and Parmesan cheeses over the top of the potatoes.
    • Reseal the foil packet and allow it to cook on the grill for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted.
  6. Serve:

    • Remove the packet from the grill and let it cool for a few minutes.
    • Carefully open the foil, garnish with additional parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Variations: For added flavor, consider adding cooked bacon bits or substituting the cheddar cheese with mozzarella or your favorite cheese blend.
  • Oven Preparation: If a grill is not available, you can prepare these potatoes in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the foil packet on a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes before adding the cheese.
