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.
OVEN ROASTED GREEK POTATOES
Last night was a Greek night at our house. I had the whole chicken in the oven on a slow roast, the potatoes marinating for the Fried Greek Potatoes and the Fasolakia simmering. I got into a project and didn't want to spend the time tending my potatoes so I put the marinating potatoes on a sheet pan and roasted them. So easy...

Steps:
- 1. Peel and cut potatoes into wedges. Dice onion. Chop garlic.
- 2. Zest the lemons and then juice. Set zest and juice aside. Cut up the lemon shell into a small dice.
- 3. Combine the potatoes, lemon juice, lemon zest, and cut up lemon, garlic, salt, pepper, Greek seasoning and oregano in a zip lock bag, mix well and allow the potatoes to marinate for an hour or so. (I let mine marinate for about 4 hours.)
- 4. Preheat oven to 425-degrees. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet with a rim. Pour potatoes mixture on sheet and spread so that it is all one level.
- 5. Roast for 30 minutes, stir potatoes so the bottom side will brown.
- 6. I don't know whether I liked the juice from the potatoes or the juice from the green beans and tomatoes better for dipping my potatoes in. You'll just have to try this menu and decide for yourself.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use Yukon Gold or baby potatoes, which have a thin skin and creamy texture that holds its shape well when roasted.
- Cut the potatoes uniformly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. If you are using a mix of small and large potatoes, cut the larger ones into smaller pieces so that they are all roughly the same size.
- Toss the potatoes in olive oil and seasonings: This will help them to brown and develop flavor. Be generous with the olive oil, as this will help to prevent the potatoes from sticking to the pan.
- Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them to get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. If you are roasting the potatoes with other vegetables, such as carrots or onions, adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will not cook evenly. Roast the potatoes in a single layer so that they have plenty of room to brown.
Conclusion:
Oven-roasted Greek potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of main courses. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With so many different ways to prepare them, you are sure to find a recipe that you love.
