Ingredients

• 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 3 whole Garlic cloves, minced
• 3 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cups Chicken broth or vegetable broth

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the potatoes thoroughly and cut them into evenly sized wedges, approximately 1-inch thick.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

Step 4

Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned potato wedges onto a large baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Step 6

Pour the chicken broth or vegetable broth evenly over the potatoes on the baking sheet.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for 20 minutes.

Step 8

After 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully flip the potato wedges using tongs or a spatula. Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp on the edges.

Step 9

Once roasted to perfection, remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a burst of flavor and color.

Step 10

Serve warm as a side dish to grilled meats, fish, or a fresh Greek salad!
