How to make Greek-Style Lemon Roasted Potatoes
Ingredients:
3 pounds of potatoes, peeled and sliced into thick wedges
⅓ cup of olive oil
Juice of 2 lemons
2 teaspoons of salt
1 teaspoon of oregano
½ teaspoon of ground black pepper
3 cups of chicken broth
Directions:
Step 1: Begin by gathering all the required ingredients. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
Step 2: Place the potato wedges into a spacious bowl. Drizzle them with the olive oil and freshly squeezed lemon juice, then toss them gently to ensure an even coating. Season the wedges with salt, oregano, and black pepper, and toss once more to distribute the flavors evenly.
Step 3: Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer within a 2-inch-deep baking pan. Pour the chicken broth evenly over the potatoes.
Step 4: Roast the potatoes in your preheated oven until they achieve a delectable tenderness and a golden-brown exterior, which should take approximately 1 hour.
Step 5: Now, it’s time to savor these delightful Greek potato wedges!

Alternatively, you can opt to roast these in a foil pan on your grill for a quicker cooking time of 30 to 40 minutes.
