Ingredients
  • 8-10 Potatoes, large(I use thin skinned, but use whatever you have on hand)
  • 1/4Cup Extra virgin olive oilPlus 3 TBS
  • 3 Lemonszested
  • 2TBS Parsley finely chopped
  • 2TBS Garlic clovesminced or grated on a microplane
  • Salt and Pepperto taste
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  2. Wash potatoes well and cut into bite sized pieces.
  3. Mix potatoes and ¼ cup olive oil in a bowl and place on a parchment lined sheet tray, in one layer. (I often just mix the potatoes and oil on the lined tray, if I want fewer dishes to wash!)
  4. Sprinkle the oiled potatoes with a generous amount of salt and some pepper.
  5. Cook for approximately 40 minutes, until the outside is golden brown and crisp and the inside is tender.
  6. Meanwhile, mix together in your serving bowl, the lemon zest, parsley, garlic, remaining 3 TBS olive and salt and pepper to taste.
  7. When the potatoes come out of the oven, toss them together with the lemon zest mixture and serve immediately, while hot.
