Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 4 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the potatoes and cut them into wedges of equal size to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, broth, minced garlic, oregano, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the mixture.
Transfer the potatoes into a large baking dish or ovenproof pan, making sure to pour the marinade evenly over the potatoes.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and roast for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, carefully flip the potato wedges using tongs or a spatula to ensure even browning.
Return the dish to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender. Keep an eye on them to prevent overcooking.
Once cooked, remove the dish from the oven and let the potatoes rest for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the roasted potatoes with fresh chopped parsley for garnish before serving. Serve warm and enjoy your zesty Greek oven roast potatoes!
