Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Prepare six 18-inch squares of heavy-duty aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, combine the cubed potatoes and chopped garlic scapes. Drizzle generously with extra-virgin olive oil, then season liberally with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Ensure all pieces are well coated. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Divide the potato and scape mixture evenly among the six aluminum foil squares. Fold the edges of each foil square over the potato mixture, creating sealed packets. Ensure there are no openings to allow steam to escape. (10 minutes)

04

Step
8 mins

Carefully place the foil packets onto the preheated grill, close the lid, and cook until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork, approximately 20-25 minutes. Rotate the packets halfway through cooking to ensure even cooking. (25 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of butter or a drizzle of truffle oil to each packet before sealing.
If garlic scapes are unavailable, substitute with 4 cloves of minced garlic and a handful of chopped chives for a similar, though not identical, flavor profile.
Ensure the foil packets are tightly sealed to trap steam and allow the potatoes to cook thoroughly.
The cooking time may vary depending on your grill. Check for doneness by piercing a potato with a fork through the foil.
