Categories     Potato

Time 35m

Yield 1 potato pack, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 medium potato, cut in thick french fry style pieces (I prefer Yukon Gold)
1 garlic clove, crushed
1/4 onion, chopped
3 mushrooms, sliced
1/4 green pepper, chopped
1/4 jalapeno, chopped (optional)
1/4 cup butter
salt
pepper
lemon pepper seasoning
aluminum foil

Steps:

  • Put out a piece of aluminum foil large enough to envelope an entire pack (about the size of a dinner plate).
  • Spread 1/8 cup better on the foil. Sprinkle half the crushed garlic on the butter. Season with salt, pepper and lemon pepper. I use salt sparingly and pepper and lemon pepper generously.
  • Spread half of the onions, half of the mushrooms, half of the green pepper, and half of the jalapeno on top of the seasoned butter.
  • Cover with the potato.
  • Cover with the remainder of the onion, mushrooms, green pepper and jalapeno.
  • Put the rest of the garlic on top. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon pepper. Spread the rest of the butter (1/8 cup) on the very top.
  • Roll up the aluminum foil to cover all the ingredients. Use a second piece of aluminum foil to secure.
  • Put on the grill for around 20 minutes or until done, flipping at least once.
  • Open the aluminum foil up and enjoy!

Categories     Potato

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/3 cup olive oil
2 lbs new potatoes, sliced thinly (1/4-inch, the food processor makes that go very quickly)
2 slices of a sweet onions or 4 slices yellow onions, thinly sliced
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper or 1 pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • When the fire is lit but not ready, lay out 8 pieces of foil (about 12 by 8 inches) and brush with olive oil.
  • Shingle an eighth of the potatoes in a circle in the center of each piece of foil. Break the onion slices into rings and scatter evenly over each potato ring. Equally divide the remaining olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper over the potatoes.
  • With the potato rings intact, bring the two large edges of foil to the center, sealing firmly.
  • Fold over the other two short edges to seal. Place on a medium or medium-hot fire for 20 to 25 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through (Cooking in foil packets is not an exact science, so remember to check one packet after 20 minutes for doneness and to make sure the bottom isn't burning.
  • If necessary, finish cooking with another foil sheet under the packets.).

POTATO PACKETS



Potato Packets image

This is a recipe that I have had for years. I originally got it off of a Lipton Soup Mix box and changed a bit. I like red potatoes the best but any can be used. I also add chopped carrots if I have them on hand. Originally designed for grill, I have cooked them in the oven in packets on a cookie sheet.
