Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut each potato in half lengthwise, then half again lengthwise. I cut these quarters in half again, but if they are big potatoes you can cut the pieces into thirds. You want all the wedges to be close in thickness.
2 pounds potatoes
Place the wedges into a large pot or large frying pan. Pour water of the potatoes and bring to a boil. Once they reach a boil, cook for about 5 minutes - until they are just starting to become tender.Drain and place on a plate. Put in fridge uncovered (important do not cover) for 30 minutes to an hour to cool down to at least room temperature but can be cooler.
Once the potatoes are cooled, preheat grill to 400-450° Fahrenheit.
In a plastic storage bag or large mixing bowl mix together oil, vinegar, parmesan cheese, minced onion, Italian seasoning, garlic and salt. Mix well.
2 Tablespoons olive oil, 2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar, 2 Tablespoons parmesan cheese, 1 Tablespoon dried minced onion, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Add in the potato wedges and toss gently to fully coat them. Set aside until the grill is ready.
Place on the grill over direct heat. Close the lid and cook about 5-7 minutes. If they are not as crisp and dark as you like, cook a little longer.Flip and cook another 5-7 minutes with the lid closed, until they are as dark and crisp as you would like on both sides.
Remove from the grill and sprinkle with some extra salt (optional) and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Nutritional values and serving sizes are estimated.For the potatoes - you can use other potatoes, but we think that russets or baking potatoes have the best texture.For the oil - you can use your favorite oil.For the parmesan - We actually prefer store bought grated cheese for these grilled potato wedges. It mixes better with the other ingredients then the lightweight fresh grated. You can use either one tho.For grilling - These potatoes are cooked before placing on the grill so you can safely change the temperature of the grill if needed to accommodate other foods being cooked on the grill. You will just need to adjust the cook times.
