Red Potato Spiedini

Red Potato Spiedini

Spiedini comes from Italian word spiedino-a skewer used to cook or grill meat & vegetables.

We grilled red potato spiedini using our organic certified Olio Nuovo with our new Tuscan Herb Seasoning for vegetables. Rich in fiber, the skins of red potatoes are nutrient packed with B vitamins, iron, & potassium. Easy to make, enjoy perfectly seasoned potatoes. 6 ample servings. Stay tuned for updates on our new Tuscan Herb Seasonings coming soon!

Easy Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup Villa Graziella Organic extra virgin olive oil + extra for drizzling

• 2 pounds red potatoes

• 2 ½ teaspoons Villa Graziella Organic Tuscan Herb Seasoning for veggies or your favorite dried herbs; parsley, oregano, sage, rosemary or thyme

• 1/2 teaspoon sea (Kosher fine), + extra to taste

• 1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper, + extra to taste

• Wooden skewers soaked in water 30 minutes-2 hours

Simple Directions:

1. Wash, rinse and dry potatoes, wash, rinse and dry even if pre-packaged.

2. Place potatoes in a microwave safe dish with ½ cup of water, heat for 3 minutes, stir once, return to microwave, cook additional 3-5 minutes until tender. Drain potatoes set aside to fully cool.

3. While potatoes cool, combine olive oil and spices in a bowl, whisk lightly.

4. Slice potatoes in 1 ½ inch slices, add potato slices into the bowl with herb/oil mixture.

5. Add sea salt and pepper, gently toss, set aside to marinate 30 minutes up to 3 hours.

6. Thread potato slices on soaked skewers spacing about 1 inch apart, leaving 5 inches on end of skewer free to handle skewers, reserve any remaining oil and seasoning mixture.

7. Set grill to medium heat, cook uncovered over medium heat for 5 minutes on each side.

8. Close cover, grill additional 5 minutes, potatoes should be tender and brown, not charred.

9. Remove from grill, season to taste and drizzle remaining oil & seasoning mixture.

10.Serve hot or at room temperature & enjoy

Helpful Hints:

• Partially cooking potatoes before grilling cuts down on time, halfway cooked, the high heat sears them with a tasty outer crust, while finishing cooking the inside

• Marinating potatoes with olive oil, seals in the moisture preventing them from drying out.

• Soak bamboo skewers in water up to 2 hours so potatoes cook evenly and do not burn

• Cover & refrigerate up to 3-4 days, enjoy the next morning in your favorite breakfast

frittata or scramble. At lunch in a steak salad or with a sandwich.
