Greek Lemon Potatoes
Greek Lemon Potatoes are roasted Yukon gold chunks coated in a lemon-olive oil mixture, seasoned with garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cooking in chicken broth in the oven produces a tender interior and golden, slightly crisp edges, infused with bright lemon flavor and aromatic herbs. This hearty side dish complements many main courses with its tangy, savory profile.
