Athenian Roasted Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 420°F A reviewer has suggested spraying the baking pan with Pam - that sounds like a great idea!
• Put all the ingredients into a baking pan large enough to hold them.
• Season generously with sea salt and black pepper.
• Make sure your hands are very clean and put them in the pan and give everything a toss to distribute.
• The garlic will drop into the water/oil solution but its flavour will permeate the potatoes, and this way, it won't burn.
• Bake for 40 minutes.
• When a nice golden-brown crust has formed on the potatoes, give them a stir to bring the white underside up, season lightly with a bit more sea salt and pepper and just a light sprinkling of oregano.
• Add 1/2 cup more water if pan appears to be getting dry, and pop back into oven to brown other side of potatoes.
• This will take about another 40 minutes.
• Do not be afraid of overcooking the potatoes- they will be delicious.
• Note: I often melt a bouillon cube in the water; if you do, make sure to cut back some on the salt.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place the potatoes in a single layer in a 13-x-9-inch baking dish and pour the oil over them. Add the garlic, dried oregano, salt and pepper to taste and toss well to coat with the oil.
• Bake the potatoes for 15 minutes. Add the stock, toss and bake for 10 minutes more. Add the lemon juice, toss and bake for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until the potatoes are cooked through. If you like, preheat the broiler and broil the potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Sprinkle with the fresh oregano and serve at once.
• Variation:
• Dissolve 1 tablespoon tomato paste in the stock, and reduce the amount of lemon juice to taste. Substitute Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for the black pepper.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. On a rimmed sheet pan, combine the chicken broth, olive oil, lemon juice and kosher salt. Toss the potatoes in the liquid to coat, then arrange the potatoes in an even layer, cut-sides down. Sprinkle the oregano over the potatoes, if using.
• Roast the potatoes, flipping halfway through, until fork-tender, dark 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 broiler for a few minutes.) Sprinkle with flaky salt and black pepper as desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Put potato wedges into a large bowl. Drizzle olive oil and lemon juice over the wedges and toss to coat. Season potatoes with salt, oregano, and black pepper; toss again to coat.
• Spread potato wedges in a single layer in a 2 inch-deep pan. Pour chicken broth over the potatoes.
• Roast potatoes in preheated oven until tender and golden brown, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°. In a small bowl, whisk the first seven ingredients. Arrange potatoes evenly in a shallow roasting pan. Pour water mixture over top., Roast until potatoes are golden brown and tender, 40-50 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix the lemon pepper, marjoram, basil, thyme, and rosemary. In a separate bowl, mix the wine, water, olive oil, dressing, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, and 1/2 the seasoning mixture. Pour into a medium glass baking dish. Place potatoes in the dish, coat with the mixture, and sprinkle with remaining seasonings. Cover, and refrigerate 8 hours, or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake potatoes 1 hour and 15 minutes in the preheated oven, basting once half way through the bake time.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 500 degrees. Place potatoes in a metal roasting pan large enough to fit potatoes in a single layer. Add 1 cup water, olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Toss potatoes until well coated.
• Bake, uncovered, until fork-tender and brown on the edges, about 50 minutes. Turn potatoes halfway through for even browning; add water if all the liquid has been absorbed, before they have fully browned. If desired, garnish with oregano; serve.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly oil a large baking dish.
• Stir the potatoes, garlic, olive oil, water, lemon juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until the potatoes are evenly coated; pour into the prepared baking dish.
• Roast in the preheated oven until the potatoes begin to brown, about 40 minutes. Season the potatoes with the oregano and mint. If the dish appears dry, pour another 1/2 cup water into the dish. Return to the oven and bake about 40 minutes more. Top with the crumbled feta cheese to serve.

Steps:

• In baking dish, combine potatoes, ¼ cup lemon juice, garlic and oregano, tossing to coat. Let stand 10 minutes.
• Drizzle potatoes with ¼ cup of oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Cover pan with foil and bake at 400* for 20-25 minutes. Remove foil and roast, 10 more minutes until browned and edges are crispy.
• Whisk together remaining lemon juice, oil and parsley. Drizzle over potatoes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
