Description

These Greek Lemon Potatoes are a delicious, flavorful side dish featuring tender potatoes coated in a zesty blend of lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, and oregano. Perfect for any meal!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.2 kg / 2.5 lb potatoes (Desiree, Yukon Gold, or Maris Piper)
  • 1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken stock/broth
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 5 garlic cloves, finely grated (using a microplane)
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Peel and cut the potatoes into wedges. Place them in a large baking dish.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the chicken stock, olive oil, lemon juice, grated garlic, dried oregano, and salt. Pour this mixture over the potatoes in the baking dish, making sure the potatoes are well coated.
  4. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
  5. After 40 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for another 20–25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden, occasionally basting with the pan juices.
  6. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh oregano leaves before serving. Enjoy your flavorful Greek lemon potatoes!

Notes

  • Make sure to baste the potatoes with the pan juices to enhance their flavor and keep them moist.
  • For extra flavor, you can add a little bit of fresh lemon zest on top before serving.
  • This dish pairs well with grilled meats or seafood.
