These Greek Lemon Potatoes are full of amazing lemon flavors, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Easy to make with simple ingredients, delicious and perfect for lunch, dinner, or parties. Naturally vegan.
This recipe is not a fast recipe: it takes some time to bake the potatoes to crispy perfection. But the time invest is totally worth everything in my book.
And still, the steps themselves are super easy.
In general, Mediterranean food is among my favorites, like with this Mujadara, the Italian Pasta Salad or my homemade Spaghetti Sauce.

Tips and tricks
I usually say that leftovers of my recipes can be stored, but with these baked potatoes I don’t recommend it at all. Same for freezing. These Greek Lemon Potatoes are most enjoyable fresh.
Use quality ingredients: fresh lemons, good olive oil, vegetable broth and great potatoes for baking like russets.
Use fresh oregano instead of parsley, if you like.

Hi Florian. These sound wonderful. But I have no idea (in the UK) what poultry seasoning is. Could you describe its ingredients please? Many thanks. Lesly 181121
