If you’ve been a reader for long, you know that one of my main goals for summer dinners (besides binging on corn on the cob) is moving as much of the cooking outside to the grill as we can! I love any meat on the grill, and these\u00a0grilled potatoes go with anything. They couldn’t be easier – and they’re crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and topped with melty cheese. SO GOOD.<\/p>\n

Start by piercing and microwaving a few potatoes (if they’re on the small side, I figure one potato per person, but if they’re big,\u00a0a half can be a serving). I’m sorry I can’t tell you how long this takes\u00a0– it depends on your microwave, the size of the potatoes, and how many you’re doing. Just keep cooking them for 3-4 minutes at a time, turning them over each time you check them, until they’re tender and give slightly when you gently squeeze them.<\/p>\n

While the potatoes are cooking, slice up a bunch of sharp cheddar cheese (2-3 slices per potato, depending on their size). I recommend cutting some extra while you’re at it…cheese thieves are everywhere. ;o)<\/p>\n

Slice the cooked potatoes in half (carefully, they’re hot!) and drizzle them lightly on both sides with olive oil (or you can brush it on) and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. \u00a0They’re ready for the grill!<\/p>\n

Grill the potatoes on both sides, then top with the cheese slices and wait for melty magic to happen.<\/p>\n

I\u00a0highly recommend serving grilled potatoes with my family’s favorite grilled chicken<\/a><\/span>…or these pork chops<\/a><\/span>…or heck, a hot dog! You’ll love their crackly crisp skin and edges, and that sharp cheddar oozing over each bite. Yay summer!<\/p>\n
