Greek Roasted Potatoes

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 1 hour 30 minutes

Serves: 4 people

Greek roasted potatoes are addictively delicious. They are very similar to the potatoes from our roast chicken recipe, with the exception that they are prepared on their own and can be served as a vegetarian side dish.  

The garlic, lemon, olive oil, and white wine give these potatoes loads of flavor. We tend to prefer to prepare this recipe with yukon gold potatoes. They texture holds up best during baking. However, any large potato will do.

Ingredients

  • 8 potatoes
  • 1 clove garlic
  • Juice from half a lemon
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

Preparation
