Ingredients

  • cup potatoes 
  • 0.5 cup asparagus fresh chopped
  • 0.3 cup spring onion diagonally sliced (4 medium)
  • teaspoons grapeseed oil 
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt 
  • 0.3 teaspoon pepper 

Equipment

  • sauce pan
  • grill
  • aluminum foil

Directions

  1. Heat gas or charcoal grill. Tear off 12-inch length of heavy-duty foil to make packet. Lightly spray 1 side of foil (side that will be inside of packet) with canola oil cooking spray.
  2. Place potatoes in 2-quart saucepan; cover potatoes with water.
  3. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cook until potatoes are just tender, about 10 minutes.
  4. Drain potatoes; return to saucepan.
  5. Add remaining ingredients; toss gently.
  6. Place mixture in center of foil. Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space on sides for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
  7. Place foil packet on grill. Cover grill; cook 12 to 15 minutes, turning packet once. Cooking times are approximate and depend on the heat of your grill.
