Steps:
- Rinse and dry the potatoes (no need to peel). Cut crosswise into ½-inch slices (if your potatoes are smaller than a golf ball, you can halve or quarter them). Place in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, stir together the rosemary, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and oregano.
- Drizzle the potatoes with the oil, then sprinkle the spices over the top. Toss to evenly coat.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high (about 375 to 400 degrees F).
- Place two large (about 22 to 24 inches long) sheets of heavy-duty foil down on a large baking sheet (you'll use the baking sheet for easy transport) so that the foil pieces are slightly overlapping down the center to create a wider sheet. Coat with non-stick spray. Spread the potatoes onto the foil in a single layer (if you prefer not to have the food touch the foil, you can add a layer of parchment in between). Place two more overlapping sheets of foil on top, then fold up the edges all the way around to seal and create a packet. Leave some space towards the top of the packet to allow the air to circulate.
- Using the baking sheet, carry the potatoes out to the grill, then with tongs slide the packet onto the grill. Cover then cook for 15 minutes.
- Carefully open the foil then use the tongs to flip the potatoes over. They should be deeply golden on the first side (if not, continue to cook them for 3 to 5 minutes more). Place the foil loosely back over the top, close the grill, and cook for 5 to 10 additional minutes, until the potatoes are tender when pieced with a fork.
- Slide the potato packet back onto the baking sheet, then transfer them to a serving bowl (or serve them right off of the foil). Serve warm, with a sprinkle of Parmesan and chopped fresh herbs as desired.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat; close cover. Lay out three 18-inch long pieces of aluminum foil on a work surface, dull side facing up.
- Smear 1/2 tablespoon butter in the middle of the first piece of foil. Add 1/3 of the potato slices, onion, and bell pepper. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the garlic powder; season with salt and pepper. Fold up the edges of the foil over the vegetables to create an almost leak-proof packet, making sure to seal the edges. Repeat with last 2 pieces of foil and the remaining ingredients to make 2 more packets.
- Reduce the heat of the grill to medium. Place foil packets on the grate; cook until potatoes are tender, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat gas or charcoal grill. In medium bowl, stir together tomatoes, artichoke hearts and olives; set aside.
- Cut 2 (18-inch-long) sheets of heavy-duty foil. Place 1 tilapia fillet in center of each sheet. Spoon tomato mixture evenly over tilapia. Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
- Place packets on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork.
- Open packets carefully. Sprinkle salt and pepper over top; serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape well and are less likely to fall apart when grilled.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
- Toss the potatoes with oil, salt, and pepper before grilling: This will help them brown and develop flavor.
- Grill the potatoes over medium heat: This will help them cook through without burning.
- Flip the potatoes occasionally: This will help them cook evenly.
- Cook the potatoes until they are tender when pierced with a fork: This will usually take about 20-25 minutes.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: They are best when hot and fresh off the grill.
Conclusion:
Grilled potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed all summer long. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that will complement any grilled main course.
