Steps:
- In a large pot of salted water, boil potatoes until just thoroughly cooked, but not completely soft, 10 to 15 minutes depending on size. Test by piercing a potato with a thin skewer; when the skewer meets some resistance but can slide all the way through, the potatoes are ready. Drain potatoes immediately and set aside until cool enough to handle.
- Combine mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, lemon rind, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a blender; blend until smooth.
- Heat grill to high.
- Cut potatoes in half, brush the cut sides with oil, and season with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill potatoes cut side down until golden brown and just thoroughly cooked, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Place potatoes on a platter, drizzle with the mayonnaise mixture, and sprinkle with chives. Serve warm.

GRILLED NEW POTATOES WITH LEMON-GARLIC AIOLI
I found this recipe in a special insert to my local paper (years ago), but only just recently tried it. I thought there wasn't anything you could do new to a potato, but I was so wrong! Friends and family also recommended the aioli mix over fish. . .

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For this recipe, small, waxy potatoes like baby potatoes or Yukon Golds work best. They hold their shape well when grilled.
- Boil the potatoes before grilling: This helps them cook evenly and prevents them from burning on the outside while remaining raw on the inside.
- Use a grill basket: This makes it easy to flip the potatoes and prevents them from falling through the grates.
- Don't overcrowd the grill: Give the potatoes plenty of space so they can cook evenly.
- Baste the potatoes with the lemon-garlic butter: This adds flavor and helps keep them moist.
- Grill the potatoes until they are tender and slightly charred: This usually takes about 10-12 minutes.
Conclusion:
Grilled lemon-garlic potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are perfect for summer cookouts or any time you want a flavorful and healthy side dish. With their crispy exterior and tender, flavorful interior, these potatoes are sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
