Tuscan Grilled Potato Packets

Prep: 30 minutes
Grill: 30 minutes • Serves: 4

1pound red new potatoes, quartered
1 small fennel bulb, halved and thinly sliced, 2 tablespoons fronds reserved for garnish
1/2 leek, thinly sliced crosswise
1 cup grape tomatoes
1/2 cup drained Kalamata olives
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon white wine
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

1. Prepare outdoor grill for direct grilling over medium heat; tear 4 (12 x 24-inch) sheets heavy-duty aluminum foil.

2. In large bowl, toss potatoes, fennel, leek, tomatoes, olives, oil, wine, thyme, salt and pepper. Makes about 8 cups.

3. Place 2 cups potato mixture in center of each foil sheet. Bring 2 edges of foil up over potato mixture and fold to seal; fold sides of foil to seal. Place packets, sealed side up, on hot grill rack; cover and cook 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender. With scissors or knife, cut an “X” in center of packets; carefully pull back foil to open and serve in packets garnished with fronds. Makes 4 packets.
