- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 medium lemon
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Thoroughly wash the potatoes, scrubbing off any dirt while leaving the skin on. Pat dry with a kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes in half and place them into a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes, ensuring they are all evenly coated.
Sprinkle the dried oregano, thyme, garlic powder, sea salt, and ground black pepper over the potatoes. Toss until the potatoes are well coated.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the seasoned potatoes out in a single layer, cut side down for optimal crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and squeeze the juice of a lemon over the hot potatoes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a delicious side dish or part of a Mediterranean meal.
