Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the potatoes (optional, if you prefer them skinless) and cut them into wedges about 1 inch thick.
Place the potato wedges in a large mixing bowl.
Add the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the potatoes. Toss well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Transfer the seasoned potatoes to a large baking dish or sheet pan, spreading them out in a single layer.
Pour the chicken or vegetable broth evenly over the potatoes. This will help them stay tender and flavorful while baking.
Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, turning them gently halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Once the potatoes are crispy and golden on the outside and tender on the inside, remove them from the oven.
Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve warm alongside your favorite Greek or Mediterranean-inspired meals and enjoy!
