This recipe transforms humble potatoes into a smoky, tender side dish that rivals any steakhouse. By wrapping the potatoes in heavy-duty foil with a blend of lemon pepper, cayenne, and olive oil, the steam traps the moisture while the grill imparts a subtle char. The result is a fluffy interior with a zesty, slightly spicy crust. It’s an effortless way to elevate a summer barbecue or a weeknight dinner. The foil packet method keeps cleanup minimal, allowing you to focus on enjoying the bright, herbaceous flavors. Serve these alongside grilled meats or as a standalone vegan option for a satisfying, rustic meal that feels both comforting and sophisticated.
