Greek Lemon Potatoes

By Ali Slagle

YIELD 6 servings
TIME About 1 hour

For the dreamiest roasted potatoes — with creamy insides and very crispy outsides — follow
this classic Greek method of roasting peeled potatoes in equal parts olive oil, lemon juice
and chicken stock. The potatoes soak up the flavorful liquid, allowing the insides to remain
tender while the outsides crisp in the oven’s high heat. You can follow the same method for
russet potatoes, though the final result will be less moist.

INGREDIENTS PREPARATION

½ cup chicken broth or water


Step 1
½ cup olive oil
Heat the oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed sheet pan, combine the
½ cup freshly squeezed chicken broth, olive oil, lemon juice and kosher salt. Toss the
lemon juice (from 3 to 4 large potatoes in the liquid to coat, then arrange the potatoes in an even
lemons) layer, cut-sides down. Sprinkle the oregano over the potatoes, if
1 tablespoon kosher salt using.

3 pounds large Yukon Gold


Step 2
potatoes (about 6), peeled
then halved lengthwise and Roast the potatoes, flipping halfway through, until fork-tender, dark
crosswise brown and crispy on top, 55 to 60 minutes. (If the potatoes are
cooked through but not as crispy as you’d like, run them under the
1 tablespoon dried oregano
broiler for a few minutes.) Sprinkle with flaky salt and black pepper
(optional)
as desired.
Flaky salt and black pepper,
for serving
