Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C).
Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes, then cut them into even-sized wedges, about 1 inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, and fresh ground black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss to coat them thoroughly with the lemon and herb mixture.
Transfer the potatoes to a baking dish or a large baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer.
Pour the low sodium vegetable broth around the potatoes in the baking dish to keep them moist during baking.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the potatoes for a fresh, bright finish.
Serve warm as a side dish to accompany grilled meats or vegetarian mains.
