Grilled Potato Packets


4-5 medium sized potatoes thinly sliced
8 green onions, chopped with some of the green, plus more for garnish
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 Tbs. olive oil
salt and pepper

Preheat grill. Place two 18 inch long pieces of heavy duty tin foil on a flat surface. Divide the potatoes, green onions, and garlic between the two pieces of foil keeping the mixture in the center of each sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season the to your liking. Gently toss the ingredients on the foil, then fold and crimp the foil along the sides to make a flat packet (make each packet a uniform thickness for even cooking). Grill the packets for 15 minutes, then turn them over and grill for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with additional green onions, parmesan cheese, or shredded cheddar cheese. Serves 8.
