Hands-on time: 5 minutes
Par-boiling time: 10-15 minutes (depending on the size of the potatos)
Grilling time: 5 minutes on a hot grill (or sauteed over high heat on top of stove)
Serves 4


Ingredients:
2lb/1kg baby new potatoes, scrubbed but not peeled
2-3 tbsp olive oil
Grated zest of 1 lemon
Kosher salt & freshly ground pepper to taste


Directions:
1. Boil potatoes in salted water until tip of knife makes it almost to the center of the potato before meeting resistance.   Drain and pat dry.


2. In a bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon zest, salt & pepper. Add the drained potatoes and toss to coat well.


3. Use a BBQ vegetable basket (has holes so vegetables can char a bit without falling through the BBQ grate)


4. Grill over medium high heat until the potatoes are golden and tender.  If you don't have a BBQ you can saute in a skillet over high heat until the potatoes are done.
