Slow Roasted Greek Lemon Potatoes

Healthy Fact of the Day

Greek Lemon Potatoes are a flavorful side dish rich in vitamin C from lemon juice and potassium from potatoes. Using olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, while fresh herbs enhance flavor without additional sodium. Opt for low-sodium broth to further reduce salt content. These potatoes pair wonderfully with lean proteins or a fresh Greek salad for a balanced meal.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (about 1 kg) Yukon Gold or russet potatoes, peeled and cut into wedges
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 large lemons)
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
  • Lemon wedges (for serving, optional)

     Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, thyme, smoked paprika (if using), chicken broth, salt, and pepper.

  3. Add potato wedges to the bowl and toss until evenly coated.

  4. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in a large roasting pan or baking dish, pouring the remaining marinade over the top.

  5. Cover the dish with foil and roast for 40 minutes.

  6. Remove foil, stir the potatoes, and increase oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).

  7. Continue roasting, uncovered, for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and crispy on the edges.

  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges, if desired.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
