GREEK LEMON-ROASTED POTATOES



Greek Lemon-Roasted Potatoes image

Greek potatoes are roasted with lemon juice and dried Greek oregano; lemon is so central to Greek cooking that the term a la grecque (French for "in the Greek style") generally means "cooked with lemon."

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large russet baking potatoes (8 medium), peeled and quartered

  • Bake, uncovered, until fork-tender and brown on the edges, about 50 minutes. Turn potatoes halfway through for even browning; add water if all the liquid has been absorbed, before they have fully browned. If desired, garnish with oregano; serve.

ROAST BONELESS LEG OF LAMB WITH POTATOES, LEMON, AND MARJORAM



Roast Boneless Leg of Lamb with Potatoes, Lemon, and Marjoram image

No ordinary roast, this boneless leg of lamb is fit for both Easter and Passover feasts. The lamb meat is studded with slivers of garlic, marinated overnight in lemon and marjoram, and then roasted with russet potatoes, an uncomplicated technique that infuses the potatoes with the bright flavors of the marinade.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Lamb Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 boneless leg of lamb (about 4 pounds; not tied), trimmed of excess fat
4 garlic cloves (2 thinly sliced, 2 crushed)
Juice of 2 lemons (about 1/2 cup)
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh marjoram, plus sprigs for garnish
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 russet potatoes (about 2 1/2 pounds)

Steps:

  • Place lamb in a large, shallow, nonreactive dish. Using a paring knife, make 1/2-inch-deep slits all over lamb, spacing 2 inches apart; insert 1 garlic slice into each slit. Pour lemon juice over top. Add marjoram, crushed garlic, and 3 tablespoons oil to dish. Turn lamb to coat.
  • Place 3 long pieces of kitchen twine parallel to one another on a cutting board, about 3 inches apart. Fold lamb, and place on top of twine. Tie each piece around lamb to secure. Return to dish. Cover, and refrigerate at least 12 hours (up to 1 day), turning once.
  • Remove lamb from marinade; reserve marinade. Season lamb with salt and pepper; transfer to a roasting pan. Let stand at room temperature 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Peel potatoes; quarter lengthwise, and halve crosswise. Arrange potatoes around lamb; season with salt and drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Toss to coat.

LEMON AND HERB ROASTED CHICKEN WITH BABY POTATOES



Lemon And Herb Roasted Chicken With Baby Potatoes image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (4 to 5 pound) free-range chicken
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, halved
1 head garlic, halved
1/4 bunch each fresh rosemary, thyme, and parsley
1/4 cup olive oil
11/2 pounds red new potatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Rinse the chicken with cool water, inside and out, then pat it dry with paper towels. Season the cavity with salt and pepper, and then stuff the lemon, garlic, and herbs inside. Place the chicken, breast-side up, in a roasting pan. Tie the legs of the chicken together with kitchen twine to help hold its shape. Toss the potatoes around the chicken. Season the whole thing with a fair amount of salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Roast the chicken and potatoes for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Don't forget to baste the chicken with the drippings and rotate the pan every 20 minutes or so to insure a golden crispy skin. The chicken is done when an instant-read thermometer says 165 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (the legs of the chicken should wiggle easily from the sockets too.) Remove the chicken to a platter and let stand for 10 minutes, so the juices settle back into the meat before carving. Serve with the roasted potatoes on the side.

TUSCAN ROASTED POTATOES & LEMON



Tuscan Roasted Potatoes & Lemon image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled and 1-inch-diced
8 large garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
2 large or 4 small branches fresh rosemary
1/2 large lemon, cut in half through the stem and thinly sliced crosswise
3 tablespoons good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the potatoes on a sheet pan, add the garlic, rosemary, lemon, olive oil, 2 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper, and toss until everything is coated with oil. Spread out in one layer.
  • Roast for 50 to 60 minutes, turning the potatoes with a metal spatula every 20 minutes, until the potatoes are browned and crisp on the outside and tender inside. The garlic will be browned and sweet and the lemon slices will be caramelized. Discard the rosemary branches, sprinkle with fleur de sel, and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes. Yukon Gold or red potatoes are best for this dish, as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Cut the potatoes into evenly sized pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to remove excess starch and prevent them from sticking together.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the potatoes from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. Cook the potatoes in batches if necessary.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender but still hold their shape. This will usually take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Add the lemon juice and zest, garlic, and herbs at the end of cooking. This will help to brighten the flavors of the dish.
  • Serve immediately. Lemon potatoes are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Lemon potatoes are a simple but delicious side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. By following these tips, you can make sure that your lemon potatoes turn out perfectly every time.
