Greek Style Oven Roasted Lemon Butter Parmesan Potatoes Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by á-153

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs potatoes
1 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup butter, melted (no substitutes)
1 teaspoon oregano (or to taste)
1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic (optional or to taste)
salt and pepper
1/2-3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (or to taste)
chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Set oven to 375 degrees. Butter a shallow baking dish large enough to hold the potatoes. Peel and cut the potatoes into large wedges and place into the prepared baking dish. In a bowl combine the broth, lemon juice, butter, oregano, salt, pepper and minced garlic (if using); mix well to combine. Pour over potatoes in the dish and stir to coat well. Cover the dish tightly with foil. Bake for about 40 minutes. Uncover and turn potatoes. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and return to oven (uncovered). Bake for another 20-30 minutes, or until potatoes are done to desired tenderness. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and serve. *NOTE* the Parmesan may be sprinkled on just after baking if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or baby potatoes work best for this recipe as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Toss the potatoes in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices: This will help them to brown and develop flavor.
  • Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet: This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Roast the potatoes in a hot oven: This will help them to develop a crispy exterior and tender interior.
  • Season the potatoes with salt and pepper to taste: This will help to balance the flavors.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: This is when they are at their best.

Conclusion:

Greek-style lemon roasted potatoes are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. They are perfect for any occasion, from a weeknight dinner to a special holiday meal. These potatoes are also a great way to use up leftover potatoes. With their crispy exterior, tender interior, and tangy lemon flavor, these potatoes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
