Greek Lemon Potatoes
Crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, these Greek Lemon Potatoes are made with potatoes, oil, lemon juice, garlic, and spices. They are simply irresistible!
Ingredients
- 2 lbs potato Yukon gold variety
- 6 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 1/3 cup olive oil Greek
- 4 cloves garlic thinly sliced or grated
- 2 teaspoons oregano dried
- 1 teaspoon salt sea salt
- black pepper freshly ground
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF.
- Scrub the potatoes clean, then cut in half lengthwise. Then cut each half into 4 wedges. If you’d like them smaller, cut each wedge in half, or you can keep them in wedges.
- In a large bowl, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the potatoes and stir to coat.
- Pour the potatoes out onto a large rimmed baking sheet, keeping the potatoes in a single layer.
- Gently pour the broth around the edges of the pan, then tilt the pan so that you have an even layer of the broth on the bottom.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, then turn the temperature down to 350ºF and cook until the potatoes are tender and browned, about 40-50 more minutes.
Notes
- You don’t want to use minced garlic, as it will burn. You will want to either thinly slice it, or grate it so it dissolves into the oil.
- I like to turn the potatoes over a few times towards the end of the bake time to ensure they are evenly browned.
