Description
Simple recipe for crispy, flavorful potatoes roasted with lemon and garlic in the oven.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet), cut into 1-inch pieces
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large lemon, juiced and zested
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
- In a large bowl, combine the cut potatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan.
- Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through cooking, until they are golden brown and tender inside.

Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before drying them completely.
- If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, add one more clove of garlic.
