Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional for extra flavor)
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
Directions
- Preheat the Grill:
Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 375°F to 400°F). - Prepare the Potatoes:
Wash and slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture. - Season the Potatoes:
In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika (if using), salt, and pepper. Ensure all the potatoes are evenly coated. - Grill the Potatoes:
Place the potato slices on the grill, making sure they are in a single layer. Grill for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork. - Add the Cheese:
Once the potatoes are grilled and cooked through, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan over the top of the potatoes. Cover the grill for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt. - Drizzle with Butter:
Drizzle the melted butter over the cheesy garlic potatoes for an extra boost of flavor and richness. - Garnish and Serve:
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley (optional) and serve immediately while hot!
