Grilled Sriracha Sweet Potato Packets

Grilled Sriracha Sweet Potato Packets
So simple to toss together and then onto the grill, these husband approved potatoes will be making a regular appearance in the Liv Life household.

4 small-medium sweet potatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch thick slices
1/2 red oinon, sliced
3-4 Tbs olive oil
2 Tbs ketchup
1-2 tsp Sriracha (depending on how much spice you like)
salt and pepper to taste

 Preheat grill.

Place sliced sweet potatoes and onions in a medium bowl.  In a small bowl combine the olive oil, ketchup and Sriracha.  Add the sauce to the potatoes and onions an stir.

Place veggies in the center of a large square of foil.  (I doubled my foil to stop dripping).  Fold foil to seal all edges.

I place the foil packets onto the top shelf of my grill while it is still preheating.  The packets will get about 10 minutes of high heat, then when I put my meat on (usually my meat is done within 15 minutes) I turn the grill down to the proper meat temp and continue cooking the packets.  When meat is done, check the packets and if the potatoes are soft they are ready.
