Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Russet potatoes
- 6 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Fresh oregano leaves
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup Water
- 3 sprigs Fresh oregano sprigs (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel the potatoes and cut them into wedges about 1 inch thick.
In a large roasting pan, drizzle the olive oil to coat the base.
Spread the potato wedges evenly in the pan.
Sprinkle the fresh oregano leaves, minced garlic cloves, salt, and pepper over the potatoes.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the mixture for a bright, tangy flavor.
Pour the chicken or vegetable broth and water into the pan, ensuring the liquid covers the potatoes about halfway.
Gently toss the potatoes to coat them evenly in the oil, seasonings, and liquid.
Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake for approximately 45 minutes, turning the potatoes once halfway through cooking to promote even roasting.
Check the potatoes for doneness— they should be golden brown and fork-tender by the end of the cooking time.
Remove the pan from the oven and garnish with fresh oregano sprigs if desired.
Serve the Patates Riganates hot as a side dish or enjoy on their own to savor the authentic flavors of Paros.
