How to Make It

Alright, so here’s the deal. You don’t need to be a master chef here; just a grill and basic potato-handling skills are required. First, chop those potatoes up—think bite-size or whatever size makes you happy. Toss them in oil, give them a good shake with your favorite seasonings to dress them up, and toss them onto the grill. This is like playing a little potato, tossing game—kinda fun. As they cook, turn and shuffle them around; you’ll want each one to get a bit of that grill love. When they’re golden and crispy on the outside, with a soft inside—voila! You’ve reached potato nirvana.

Ingredient Notes

– **Potatoes**: They’re the stars here. Any will work, but I’m a sucker for Yukon Golds because they’ve never done me wrong.
– **Olive Oil**: Keeps everything moist and flavorful. You forget it, things might get sad and dry.
– **Seasoning**: Can’t go wrong with classic salt and pepper, but toss in some garlic powder or rosemary if you’re feeling fancy or adventurous.

**Recipe Steps**: You must fill the “Recipe Steps” section with a clear, step-by-step version of the instructions. Do not leave it empty. Summarize the main actions from the ‘How to Make It’ section in concise steps. Each step should start with a verb and follow a numbered format.

1. Cut potatoes into bite-sized pieces.
2. Toss the potatoes with olive oil and your choice of seasonings.
3. Place potatoes on a hot grill in a single layer.
4. Grill the potatoes, turning occasionally until crispy and cooked through.
5. Serve hot, preferably outdoors with friends or family.

What to Serve It With

Hey, hear me out. Pair these babies with anything off the grill, like burgers, ribs, or chicken. Or go crazy and have them as a late-night snack—no one’s judging here.

Tips & Mistakes

You think potatoes are boring? Cook them a bit longer, brown is your friend here. Also, don’t go light on the seasoning, your future self will thank you.

Storage Tips

If there are any leftovers (big if!), just toss them in the fridge. Reheat ‘em in a skillet or, with fingers crossed, eat them cold during a midnight fridge raid. Cold potatoes for breakfast? Why not—I’ve done it!

Variations and Substitutions

Honestly, if you’re out of certain seasonings, use whatever you have in the spice drawer. Once, I used taco seasoning, and wow. Tried swapping olive oil for butter? It makes them richer. And if you’re looking to mix things up—toss in some sweet potatoes!

**Frequently Asked Questions**

I can’t have gluten… will this still work?

Totally. Just switch the soy sauce for tamari or coconut aminos. I’ve done it more times than I can count. Still tastes bomb.

Do I have to peel the pineapple first? Asking for a friend.

Yeah… definitely peel it. Unless you’re into chewing bark. It’s not fun, trust me.

Can I use canned pineapple instead of fresh?

Been there, done that. Just drain it like your life depends on it. Still good, just not *as* wow.

How sweet is this? Can I tone it down a bit?

You totally can. Cut the sugar a little or swap in honey or maple syrup. I’ve done both when I ran out of brown sugar.

What if I skip the sesame oil?

Honestly? It’s fine. You’ll lose that toasted vibe, but it’s not a dealbreaker. Still delicious.
