Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into wedges, approximately 6-8 wedges per potato.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, vegetable broth, and dried oregano.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss them until they are well coated with the mixture.
Transfer the coated potatoes into a large baking dish, spreading them out evenly to ensure even cooking.
Pour the remaining mixture from the bowl over the potatoes in the dish.
Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over the potatoes.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue to bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and tender.
Occasionally stir the potatoes gently to ensure they absorb the flavors and achieve a crisp edge.
Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy warm!
