Ingredients

• 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 0.25 cup Fresh lemon juice
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Chicken or vegetable broth
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash and peel the Yukon Gold potatoes. Cut them into wedges or large bite-sized chunks for even cooking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well combined.

Step 4

Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss thoroughly until all the potatoes are evenly coated with the olive oil mixture.

Step 5

Transfer the potatoes to a large baking dish or sheet pan, spreading them out in a single layer to ensure even roasting.

Step 6

Pour the chicken or vegetable broth around the potatoes in the baking dish. This step keeps the potatoes moist and adds depth to the flavor.

Step 7

Place the dish in the preheated oven and roast for 40 minutes. Stir the potatoes halfway through to ensure even browning.

Step 8

After 40 minutes, increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) and continue roasting for an additional 10 minutes to achieve a crisp, golden exterior.

Step 9

Remove the potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve your Greek Style Roasted Potatoes warm with your favorite main dish or enjoy them as a standalone meal!
