Bacon Ranch Foil Wrapped Potatoes

★★★★★

Grilled, Side Dish

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs small yukon gold potatoes quartered

3 cloves garlic minced

2 Jalapenos seeded and cut into slices

1/2 cup onion diced

1/2 cup red peppers diced

2 tablespoons ranch dip mix

1 tablespoon olive oil

5-6 slices cooked bacon, coarsely chopped

1 1/2 cups shredded cheese

salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley

Directions

In a large bowl add potatoes, olive oil, onions, pepper, garlic, jalapenos and sprinkle the ranch dip mix and toss until combined.

Spray non-stick spray on foil sheets (I usually do 3) divide the potatoes evenly among the foil sheets. Fold the edges of the foil over the potatoes to form a packet.

Place packs on grill over medium heat. Cover and cook 15 minutes, rotate, and cook another 20 minutes or until fork-tender.

Gently open packs and sprinkle cheese over potatoes. Cover grill and wait 2-3 minutes until cheese has melted.

Remove from grill and garnish with chopped bacon and fresh chopped parsley.

Notes

These were excellent. Jill liked them. I left the Jalapeno off of hers.

Can also use russet potatoes.

Oven baking times: Preheat oven to 400 degrees and place foil wrapped potato packets on a baking sheet. Place baking sheet in the center rack and bake for 30 minutes or until fork tender. Open foil packets and place cheese on top and bake another 5 minutes or until melted.
