On to the recipe…choose potatoes of your liking. I used a combination of both red and yellow potatoes for this recipe. Cut your potatoes of choice in half and quarter an onion. Toss potatoes and onion with Olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Place on a large piece of heavy duty foil sprayed with non-stick cooking spray on a baking sheet. Add potato mixture and top with butter. Close foil around potatoes and poke several holes in foil to allow steam to escape. Place pan on heated grill. When potatoes are tender, be careful of steam when opening foil. Add lemon thyme before serving and get ready for a flavor explosion.
