ROASTED LEMON PEPPER POTATOES
If you've made and loved our Greek Lemon Chicken and Fondant Potatoes, then you will absolutely adore these lemon pepper potatoes, since it's basically the best of those two recipes put together, minus the chicken. Tender on the inside and crusty on the outside, these potatoes make for an impressive side dish. The only problem is whatever main course you pair it with is in serious danger of being upstaged.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
- Trim off long edges of the russet potatoes so that they can lay flat. Cut in half lengthwise and rinse in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch. Pat dry on paper towels. Season generously with black pepper, cayenne, and salt.
- Coat the bottom of a large baking dish with olive oil. Lay potatoes seasoned-sides down in the dish. Brush tops with more olive oil; season with pepper, cayenne, and salt.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove and carefully flip potatoes over. Let rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine broth with lemon zest and juice. Pour mixture over the potatoes. Scrape zest off the tops of the potatoes and back into the broth. Stick oregano sprigs between the potatoes. Season with pepper. Shake the dish lightly to slosh the sauce back and forth.
- Return potatoes to the oven and roast for 15 minutes. Flip again; continue roasting until very soft and creamy on the inside and crusty on the outside, 10 to 15 minutes more. Flip over once more to serve. Drizzle more olive oil on top; sprinkle with pepper and more oregano.

- Set up a grill for cooking with indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.

Pour the mixture over the potatoes and toss to combine. Turn the potatoes so they are cut-side down in the pan.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH GARLIC, LEMON, AND OREGANO
For perfect Roasted Potatoes with Garlic, Lemon, and Oregano there is no need to peel them, but I suggest that you halve them, because they taste best when they can absorb more sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place the potatoes in a single layer in a 13-x-9-inch baking dish and pour the oil over them. Add the garlic, dried oregano, salt and pepper to taste and toss well to coat with the oil.
- Bake the potatoes for 15 minutes. Add the stock, toss and bake for 10 minutes more. Add the lemon juice, toss and bake for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until the potatoes are cooked through. If you like, preheat the broiler and broil the potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Sprinkle with the fresh oregano and serve at once.
- Variation:
- Dissolve 1 tablespoon tomato paste in the stock, and reduce the amount of lemon juice to taste. Substitute Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for the black pepper.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For this recipe, Yukon Gold or red potatoes are ideal. They hold their shape well and have a slightly waxy texture that makes them perfect for grilling.
- Use fresh lemons: Fresh lemon zest and juice add a bright, citrusy flavor to the potatoes. Avoid using bottled lemon juice, as it doesn't have the same flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the grill: Make sure to leave some space between the potatoes on the grill so that they cook evenly. If they're too crowded, they'll steam instead of grill.
- Flip the potatoes halfway through grilling: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Season the potatoes generously: Don't be afraid to season the potatoes liberally with salt, pepper, and lemon pepper seasoning. This will help them develop a delicious flavor.
- Serve immediately: Grilled lemon pepper potatoes are best served immediately, while they're still hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Grilled lemon pepper potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that's perfect for any occasion. They're simple to make and can be grilled in just a few minutes. With their bright citrusy flavor and crispy texture, these potatoes are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty side dish, give grilled lemon pepper potatoes a try. You won't be disappointed!
