Greek Style Lemon Potatoes








Some people might think- lemon with potatoes? Absolutely not! That's what I thought at first until I actually tired them. As it turns out, they are in fact some of the most wonderful potatoes that I've eaten. If you haven't tried them, make it a point- you won't be sorry. 



3 lbs. baking or golden potatoes, sliced into wedges 
4 cloves garlic, minced 
1 -1  1/4 tsp. coarse salt 
1/2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper 
1  1/2 tsp. dried oregano 
1 lemon, juiced 
1/4 c. extra virgin olive oil 


  • Preheat oven to 375 and spray a jelly roll pan with non stick cooking spray. 
  • In a large mixing bowl, toss with potato wedges with lemon juice and  olive oil to coat. 
  • Add garlic, salt, pepper and oregano. Toss to coat. 
  • Pour potatoes into jelly roll pan in a single layer. 
  • Bake 30-45 minutes or until desired "crispiness" is achieved.
