1/2 tsp  (2 mL)  salt
1/4 tsp  (1 mL)  black pepper

Preparation

Place potatoes on double layer of heavy-duty foil large enough to fold over to make flat packet; sprinkle with oil, salt and pepper. Fold foil over potato mixture, sealing edges.

Grill over medium-high heat for 10 minutes; flip over and slit 1 or 2 vents in top. Continue grilling until tender, about 8 minutes.
