LEMON POTATOES WITH GARLIC AND OREGANO



LEMON POTATOES WITH GARLIC AND OREGANO image

Categories     Potato     Bake

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs. Yukon gold or baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 cup olive or canola oil
4 garlic cloves, crushed or thinly sliced
1 1/2 tsp. dried oregano, crumbled
1 tsp. salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup beef or chicken stock
1/3 cup lemon juice
chopped fresh oregano (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Spread the potatoes in a single layer in a 9 x 13 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. Roast 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 golden and cooked through. If you like, sprinkle with fresh oregano.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Baby potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes are ideal for this recipe as they hold their shape well and have a creamy texture.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Give the potatoes enough space to roast so that they get crispy on all sides.
  • Roast the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them to get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Season the potatoes generously: The lemon-oregano marinade adds a lot of flavor to the potatoes, so don't be afraid to use plenty of it.
  • Roast the potatoes until they are tender: You can check this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato; it should go in easily.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately: They are best enjoyed hot out of the oven.

Conclusion:

This lemon-oregano potatoes recipe is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the lemon-oregano marinade adds a bright and flavorful touch.
