Foiled Potatoes
Tender, savory, and cooked to perfection, these easy foil packet potatoes are the perfect side dish for grilling season, weeknight dinners, or camping trips.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 bag 24 oz Wada Farms small potatoes, quartered
- ½ yellow onion diced
- 3-4 cloves garlic minced
- 2-4 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (if baking) or your grill to medium-high heat.
- Tear off a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. For extra security and to prevent tears, you can double up the foil.
- Start by washing and drying your potatoes. Quarter each potato, ensuring they are all the same size so they cook evenly.
- Place the potatoes, onions, garlic, salt and pepper in the center of the foil. Drizzle generously with olive oil and toss until everything is well-coated.
- Fold the foil over the potatoes to create a sealed packet. Make sure to crimp the edges tightly to prevent any steam from escaping.
