Skewered Grilled Potatoes

For tonight’s grilling I wanted some new ideas. I found this recipes off allrecipes.com and they were great and easy to whip up!
ENJOY!
Ingredients: (serves 8 adjust to your needs)
2 pounds red potatoes, quartered
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 teaspoons crushed dried rosemary-I used oregano as we dont like rosemary
1 teaspoon garlic powder-I used fresh garlic
wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Directions:
Place potatoes and water in a microwave safe bowl. Cook potatoes in microwave on high until just tender, about 15 minutes, stirring half-way through. Drain potatoes and allow to steam for a few minutes to dry.
In a large bowl, stir together mayonnaise, wine, rosemary, and garlic powder. Mix in drained potatoes and toss to coat. Marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
Remove potatoes from marinade, and skewer. Grill, covered, for 6 to 8 minutes, brushing occasionally with marinade, turning half-way through. Remove potatoes from skewers and serve hot.
What a genius idea. Do you think these could be done in the broiler? We don’t have a grill.
yes a broiler would be fine just keep an eye on it as it will cook faster and might burn the skewers if they are wood..soak in cold water before hand if using wood skewers
enjoy
