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!

These potatoes were a bit dry. I would probably add more oil next time.

These potatoes were okay. I found the flavor to be a bit bland. I would probably add more herbs next time.

These potatoes were a bit too lemony for my taste, but my husband loved them. I would probably use less lemon next time.

I'm not a big fan of roasted potatoes, but these were actually really good! The lemon-herb flavor was very nice and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make these again.
