Notes
- You can use fresh or dried herbs for this recipe.
- Some use butter instead of olive oil for this recipe but I personally prefer olive oil as I don't like the flavor of butter to overpower the lemon and garlic flavor.
- Greek potatoes are naturally gluten free, therefore they're a great option for gluten free guests.
- For a vegetarian version, swap chicken stock for vegetable stock. You can use homemade or store bought stock for this recipe.
- I used only 1/4 cup olive oil for one pound potatoes but you can use up to 1/2 cup olive oil for this recipe.
- These potatoes are best served fresh. However, if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to two days. To serve, reheat the potatoes in the oven at 250ºF for about 10 to 15 minutes.
