Roasted Potatoes With Whole Garlic, Lemon and Oregano
Time: 1 hrs
Ingredients
- 3 lbs potatoes (use small if possible and cut into about 1-1/2 - 2 inch cubes)
- 1/2 cup olive oil (or more)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted (no subs!)
- 1 whole bulb of garlic, separated into smaller cloves and skins removed (can use two whole bulbs if desired)
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano (rubbed between fingers, can increase to up to 1 tablespoon)
- 1 -2 teaspoon salt
- black pepper
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (no bottled please!)
Directions
- 1 Set oven to 400 degrees.
- 2 Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
- 3 In a small cup or bowl, whisk together the oil and melted butter; add in dried oregano and mix well.
- 4 Place the potatoes and whole garlic cloves in a large bowl.
- 5 Pour the oil/butter mixture over the potatoes and the garlic; toss well to coat.
- 6 Season with salt and pepper (you can use seasoning salt in place of regular salt, I most always do!) toss well to coat.
- 7 Place the potatoes in the baking dish in a single layer, and bake for 15 minutes (if you are lucky enough to have a convection/roast setting on your oven, then use it for this recipe).
- 8 Remove and add in the chicken stock; toss the potatoes to coat well, and place back in the oven for about 10 minutes more.
- 9 Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh lemon juice; toss and place back in the oven for another 10-15 minutes more.
- 10 **NOTE** if you like you can preheat the broiler, and broil the potatoes for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown, but that is optional.
