Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Yukon Gold or russet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 large Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Wash and peel the potatoes as desired, then cut them into wedges or thick slices for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them thoroughly in the seasoning mixture until evenly coated.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them for even roasting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm as a side dish or as the star of your meal!
