Time 26m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
4 medium potatoes, Yukon Gold, each potato cut lengthwise into 8 wedges
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh oregano leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parsley leaves, minced

Steps:

  • Cut each potato lengthwise into 8 wedges. You should have 32 potato pieces. (like joe joes).
  • Heat vegetable oil and butter in heavy-bottomed 12 inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until butter melts and foaming subsides, swirling pan occasionally.
  • Add potatoes in single layer; cook until golden brown (pan should sizzle but not smoke), about 6 minutes.
  • Using tongs, turn potatoes so second cut sides are down; Combine garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, zest and oregano in a small bowl, pour over potatoes and stir well.
  • Cook on second side, about 5 minutes longer. Stirring once more, add ground black pepper and reduce heat to medium-low, cover tightly, and cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with tip of paring knife, about 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with parsley, stir gently to distribute; serve immediately. (optional - add 3 oz crumbled feta and 8 Kalamata olives (sliced thin) and add in with the parsley.

I'm not a big fan of lemon-flavored potatoes, but these were actually really good. The garlic and herbs balanced out the lemon flavor nicely.

These potatoes were a disappointment. They were bland and lacked flavor. I won't be making them again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my potatoes didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. Maybe I should have roasted them for a little longer.

These potatoes were a bit too lemony for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the best roasted potatoes he's ever had.

Loved these potatoes! The lemon and garlic flavors were amazing, and the potatoes were so tender. I served them with grilled chicken and vegetables, and it was a perfect meal.

Easy to make and delicious! I used Yukon Gold potatoes, and they turned out perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The lemon and garlic flavors were spot-on.
