Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 medium (about 7 oz each) Yukon gold potatoes, cut in 1-inch pieces
2 cups (about 12 oz) diced ham, (3/4-inch dice)
1 1/3 cups shredded Gouda cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps

1

Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 4 (18x12-inch) sheets of heavy-duty foil. Spray with cooking spray.
2

In large bowl, mix melted butter, mustard, salt and pepper. Add potatoes and ham; stir until evenly coated. Divide mixture among sheets of foil.
3

Bring up 2 sides of foil so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
4

Place packs on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 12 minutes. Rotate packs 1/2 turn; cook 8 to 10 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender. Remove packs from grill; cut large X across top of each pack. Carefully fold back foil; sprinkle potatoes with cheese. Loosely close; let stand 3 to 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Garnish with chives.
5

To make in oven, place packs on cookie sheet. Bake at 375°F 40 to 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Add cheese and chive garnish as directed above.
