Ingredients
-
4 russet potatoes (about 8 oz. each)
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
-
½ teaspoon ground pepper
-
½ teaspoon garlic powder
-
½ teaspoon paprika
-
½ teaspoon salt, divided
-
¼ cup sour cream
-
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Directions
-
Preheat a gas grill to medium (350-400 degrees F) on one side of grill (leave the other side unlit). (Have a charcoal grill? See Tip.) Place each potato on a separate, double-layer piece of foil. Drizzle evenly with oil and turn to coat. Sprinkle the potatoes evenly with pepper, garlic powder, paprika and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Wrap them tightly with the foil.
-
Place the potatoes on the grate over the unlit side of the grill. Grill, covered, until tender, about 1 hour, 30 minutes, flipping and rotating the potatoes halfway through grilling.
-
Remove the potatoes from the grill and carefully unwrap. Make a slit in each potato and fluff the insides with a fork. Top with sour cream, chives and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Tips
Tip: If using a charcoal grill, open the bottom vent completely. Light a charcoal chimney starter filled with briquettes. When the briquettes are covered with gray ash, pour them onto the bottom grill grate and push them to one side. Adjust vents as needed to maintain an internal temperature of 350-400 degrees F. Place the top grate on the grill. Place the foil-wrapped potatoes on the top grate over the side without coals. Grill, covered, until tender, about 1 hour, 30 minutes, flipping and rotating the potatoes halfway through grilling.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
