Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Lemon juice
- 0.5 cup Vegetable broth
- 4 Garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp Dried oregano
- 1 tbsp Fresh rosemary
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Lemon zest
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into thick wedges.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, vegetable broth, minced garlic cloves, dried oregano, fresh chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss thoroughly to coat them with the marinade.
Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a baking dish, pouring the remaining marinade from the bowl over the top.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil from the baking dish and sprinkle the lemon zest over the potatoes.
Return the uncovered dish to the oven and bake for an additional 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, occasionally basting them with the pan juices.
Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the potatoes before serving, adding an extra touch of freshness and color.
Serve the Vegetarian Greek Style Lemon Potatoes warm as a side dish or enjoy them on their own.
