Ingredients

• 6 medium Russet potatoes
• 0.25 cup Extra virgin olive oil
• 0.25 cup Fresh lemon juice
• 4 large Garlic cloves
• 2 teaspoons Dried oregano
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
• 4 Lemon wedges
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into wedges, about 6-8 wedges per potato depending on size.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves finely and chop the fresh rosemary.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, chopped rosemary, salt, and freshly ground black pepper.

Step 5

Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss thoroughly to coat each piece with the marinade.

Step 6

Transfer the coated potato wedges to a large baking dish or sheet pan, spreading them out in a single layer to ensure even cooking.

Step 7

Pour the chicken or vegetable broth into the baking dish, ensuring it spreads evenly across the bottom.

Step 8

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, turning the potatoes halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Step 9

Remove the baking dish from the oven and garnish the potatoes with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 10

Serve hot with lemon wedges for an extra zesty finish.
