Talk about being on such a serious high with all this nice weather that we've been having. Sleeping with the windows open, spending lots of time outside and mot importantly, cooking outside.
I am so excited about this side dish, it came out way better than I anticipated. Let's get these taters on the grill!
Pour 1/3 cup of extra virgin olive oil in a small sauce pan and add 1 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves and 1 teaspoon of minced garlic. Turn the burner on the lowest setting and forget about it. The garlic and rosemary will infuse the olive oil and talk about smell good!
Wash about 2 lbs. of new potatoes. Place in a large pot and completely cover with cold water. Place pot on stove and bring to a boil. Add a generous handful of salt and boil potatoes for about 15 minutes. You want to get them almost cooked. Drain the potatoes and when they are cool enough to handle cut them all in half.
Place the potatoes on the grill, cut side down and let them grill for about 8 to 10 minutes over a low flame.
Be vewry, vewry quiet, we're hunting wabbits! Scout loves to stalk and that's as aggressive as she gets.
Ladle a couple spoonfuls of the infused olive oil over the potatoes, season with salt and pepper and toss potatoes to evenly coat. Garnish with parsley and chow down!
Ok, here's a little lagnaippe (something extra: lan-yap) for you. This is what you do with the left over infused olive oil. Slice some french bread real thin, dip one side of the bread in the oil and toast the bread under the broiler or use it to make your favorite vinaigrette.
That looks soooooo good!!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you were excited thes look wonderful! I can smell them way down here. Good Job, K.
ReplyDeleteGrilled potatoes? I would have never thought about doing that! They look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThose grilled potatoes sound so tasty !

ReplyDeleteI made these last night. Great minds think a like. I served them with a roasted herbed chicken and creamed spinach.
i laoooveeeee grilled potatoes!
ReplyDeletethey look delish.
Great looking potatoes and what an adorable dog.
ReplyDeleteOooo, spuds. Come hither you little vixen. Is it bad to want potatoes for breakfast (that aren't hashbrowns or skillet spuds)?
ReplyDeleteAnother dish that I love but my family doesn't care for. Again I lose. Any chance of me coming over for dinner sometime....soon?
ReplyDeleteYou need to give us pictures of Scout more often!
ReplyDeleteWe only eat red skinned potatoes hereabouts. Their flavor is so good! Even though it's 42 outside, we won't be doing anything outside in the rain and mud. Your potatoes and outdoor activities look great!
yay for potatoes! this looks so delicious!thanks for the great olive oil tip!
ReplyDeletewhere do you live? it's warm enough for outdoor grilling already?
I love new potatoes! Sounds awesome grilled with rosemary and garlic!

ReplyDeleteBtw, your Scout is so cuteeeee!
Oh Katherine, It's so nice to be back in your kitchen after my laptop crash!
ReplyDeleteI've caught up on all the yummy stuff you're doing lately and I'm thinking about flying my family down to you because they would love what you're cooking up, especially the beef fajitas and Buffalo chicken pasta.
For me, the incredible grilled potatoes will do just fine.
But the poached pears entry really killed me. No hubby, no kids, and that's what you did? You are a food goddess!
I love sleeping with the windows open. Ahh, warm weather come faster!
ReplyDeleteThe potatoes look flavorful and quite attractive!
Yum! I love to grill and we are lucky that we get to grill so many months out of the year:)
ReplyDeleteI've never roasted potatoes. But it's cold again here, so these will just have to wait.
ReplyDeleteThos grill marks on the potatoes have slayed me...can't wait to get out and try this.
