Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Yukon Gold potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes, then cut them into wedges, approximately 1-inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, chopped rosemary, sea salt, and black pepper.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them well until they are fully coated with the lemon and herb mixture.
Transfer the coated potatoes to a baking dish or a large roasting pan. Spread them out evenly to ensure they roast properly.
Pour the chicken broth over the potatoes. This will help them cook evenly and absorb the flavors.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven.
Roast the potatoes for 30 minutes, then remove the foil and continue roasting for another 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.
Once done, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired.
Garnish the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve the Paleo Greek Lemon Roasted Potatoes hot as a perfect side dish for poultry or fish.
