Cooking Instructions

1. Heat grill to medium-high.

2. Meanwhile, place potatoes, shallots, oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl; toss to coat. Place two 24-inch-long pieces of foil on the counter and lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange potatoes and shallots in a single layer, slightly overlapping, on half of each piece of foil. Leave a 2-inch border on all sides. Fold foil over and pinch the edges together, making two packets.

3. Place packets on the grill. Cover the grill and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. (When you open a packet to check doneness, be careful of steam.) Serve immediately.

Don't forget the garlic!

I have enjoyed Eating Well magazine for several years and often try their recipes with tasty results. I must cut down on carbs but still want the flavor and taste! Next time you have a hankering to grill a potato - try this: Thinly slice a large potato lengthwise, dividing it into 2-3 servings. Lay potato slices on non-stick foil, then follow with shallots (or thin slices of onion), a few cloves of thinly sliced (or grated) garlic, lots of black pepper, and a shake of Mrs. Dash. Before closing the packets, drizzle with the oil and squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice over the contents. I then tightly seal the packet (flatten the packet) and then hit the grill. I grill the foil packets on both sides then set them aside for a minute or two. When opened, the contents will have a crispy, nutty flavor due to the addition of the garlic. A final squeeze of lemon and voila - dinner time!
