Description
These Traeger Roasted Fingerling Potatoes are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and infused with smoky goodness. Tossed with garlic, herbs, and a hint of wood-fired flavor, they make the perfect side dish for steak, chicken, or seafood.
Ingredients
-
1.5 lbs fingerling potatoes, halved
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
1 teaspoon kosher salt
-
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
-
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
-
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (or rosemary)
-
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
-
1/4 cup grated Parmesan (optional, for serving)
Instructions
-
Preheat the Traeger – Set your Traeger grill to 400°F and allow it to preheat for about 15 minutes with the lid closed. Use hickory, oak, or applewood pellets for the best flavor.
-
Prep the potatoes – In a large bowl, toss the halved fingerling potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and thyme.
-
Roast on the Traeger – Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a cast iron skillet or a grill-safe baking sheet. Place on the Traeger and roast for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
-
Finish & serve – Remove from the grill, sprinkle with fresh parsley and Parmesan (if using), and serve hot!
Notes
-
Extra crispy potatoes? Soak them in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking, then pat dry.
-
Want some heat? Add ½ teaspoon of cayenne or red pepper flakes.
-
Pairs well with grilled steak, smoked chicken, or Traeger salmon!
