Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Leftover potatoes (roasted or boiled)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 cup Feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
If the leftover potatoes are large, cut them into bite-sized pieces or wedges.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the leftover potatoes to the pan. Spread them out in a single layer and let them crisp up for 3-4 minutes without stirring.
Flip the potatoes with a spatula and cook for another 3-4 minutes until golden and crispy on the other side.
Season the potatoes with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Mix well to coat evenly.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the potatoes and toss to combine. Let cook for an additional minute.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley. If you like, add crumbled feta cheese for an extra flavor boost.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy as a snack!
