Ingredients

  • 2 lemons juiced
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 2 ½ lbs Yukon gold potatoes peeled and cut into thick wedges
  • cup low-sodium chicken broth or chicken stock
  • Lemon Wedges and fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a large roasting pan, baking dish, or large-rimmed baking sheet with shortening or butter.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, yellow mustard, salt, pepper, oregano, and garlic.
  • Add the potatoes to the bowl and stir to coat. Spread the potatoes over the prepared pan.
  • Pour the chicken broth over the potatoes as evenly as possible.
  • Cover the pan with aluminum foil and roast for 30 minutes. Remove the cover and roast for another 20 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked through.

Notes

  • Yukon gold potatoes are slightly waxy potatoes, and they are my go-to for this recipe. You can use Russet potatoes, but they will not be as creamy.
  • For best results, peel the potatoes. The flavor of the sauce bakes right on the potatoes, creating a delicious coating.
  • Use dried oregano, as fresh oregano can be bitter.
  • Vegetable broth or vegetable stock can be substituted for the chicken broth.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or the air fryer for best results. They can also be heated in the microwave at reduced power.
  • To freeze, first, cool completely. Then add the potatoes to a sturdy freezer container. Freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the oven, air fryer, or microwave.
