TRADITIONAL GREEK ROASTED LAMB AND POTATOES



Traditional Greek Roasted Lamb and Potatoes image

A traditional and very flavorful Greek recipe for Easter and any Springtime family meal!

Provided by Marilena Leavitt

Categories     Main course

Time 3h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

3.5 lbs. lamb shoulder (bone in)
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tsps. sea salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
8 med. garlic cloves, divided into half slivered and half minced
4 sprigs fresh rosemary, divided
4 springs fresh thyme
2 tsp. dried Greek oregano
--- zest of one lemon
For the potatoes:
2 lbs. Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled & quartered
1½ tsps. sea salt
½ tsp freshly ground pepper
1 tsp. dried Greek oregano
Juice of 1 medium lemon
½ cup water or chicken stock, hot (if needed)

Steps:

  • Pat dry the lamb using paper towels and place it in a roasting pan. Using a sharp knife, make several incisions in the lamb and insert the slivered garlic and half of the rosemary leaves.
  • Whisk together the olive oil, salt, pepper, the other half of the garlic (minced), the other half of the rosemary (chopped), thyme, oregano and lemon zest. Pour the marinade over the lamb making sure to cover it on all sides. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • 30 minutes before you are ready to roast the lamb, remove it from the refrigerator and turn on the oven to 450°F.
  • Wrap the lamb and its marinade well with parchment paper (not wax paper) and then with aluminum foil (this will ensure that all the juices stay with the meat and do not leek.) If you do not have parchment paper, use two layers of foil instead. Place the roasting pan with the lamb in the middle rack of the oven, cook for 15 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 360°F. Roast for 2 hours.
  • While the lamb roasts, cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and then in quarters. If the potatoes are large, cut each quarter in half again. Place them in a medium bowl and toss them with the salt, pepper, oregano, and lemon juice.
  • After two hours, remove the roast from the oven, open the wrapping carefully and check it. At this point, the bone should be loose and starting to come away from the meat. If it is not, cover the lamb again, return it to the oven, and roast for another 15 minutes.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and increase the oven temperature to 400°F. Uncover the lamb; there should be about a cup of its juices in the pan. If there is not enough liquid, add enough hot water to make about 1 cup. Scatter the potatoes around and under the lamb and return the pan to the oven for about 20-30 minutes until the skin of the lamb is brown and crisp (cover loosely with a piece of foil if the lamb becomes too dark before this time).
  • At this point, remove only the lamb from the roasting pan and transfer it to a platter. Cover it loosely with some foil and let it rest for 20 minutes. Continue roasting the potatoes for another 15 minutes, or so, until they become soft and have a nice golden color. There should be still plenty of juice in the pan.
  • To serve, spoon some pan juices over the lamb, divide it in four portions and serve it alongside the lemon potatoes. Garnish with some lemon slices and enjoy with a glass of Merlot.

GREEK LEMON ROASTED POTATOES, MARTHA STEWART



Greek Lemon Roasted Potatoes, Martha Stewart image

This is a fantastic and different way to roast potatoes. It's great with grilled or roasted chicken and was featured in Martha Stewart Living with trout. From Martha's magazine: "Oregano is Greek for "joy of the mountain." Greek oregano has a more mild flavor than the Mexican variety usually found in the spice aisle of your supermarket. Look for Greek oregano at Italian or Greek markets." (Or you can order it from www.penzeys.com, a wonderful herb and spice shop.) Enjoy!

OVEN ROASTED GREEK POTATOES



Oven Roasted Greek Potatoes image

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...

Provided by Marsha Gardner

Categories     Potatoes

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

6-8 large baking potatoes, washed and cut into large wedges
3 clove garlic, minced
1 large onion, diced
2 large lemons
2-3 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
1 tsp oregano, dried
2-3 tsp greek seasoning
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

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.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 308 calories, Fat 15g fat (3g saturated fat), Cholesterol 6mg cholesterol, Sodium 405mg sodium, Carbohydrate 38g carbohydrate (3g sugars, Fiber 3g fiber), Protein 5g protein.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or baby potatoes work best for roasting, as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly. Aim for 1-inch pieces.
  • Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: This will help them to crisp up and brown. Use a combination of olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and oregano.
  • Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them to get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Aim for 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: This will prevent the potatoes from cooking evenly. Roast them in a single layer.
  • Roast the potatoes until they are golden brown and tender: This will take about 25-30 minutes. Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: They are best enjoyed hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Greek roasted potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
