Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces medium-sized Yukon Gold potatoes
- 0.25 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 zest of one lemon
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian option)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into wedges, ensuring that each potato is cut into 8-10 similarly sized pieces for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk everything together until well combined.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them thoroughly in the marinade, ensuring each piece is evenly coated with the mixture.
Arrange the coated potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet or roasting pan. Pour the chicken broth around the potatoes to aid in the roasting process.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for 50-60 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time to ensure they cook evenly and develop a golden crispy exterior.
Once the potatoes are tender on the inside and golden brown on the outside, remove them from the oven.
Transfer the cooked potatoes to a serving platter and sprinkle them with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Serve these delicious oven-roasted Greek potatoes hot as a side dish to complement your main course.
