Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a large oven-safe skillet or 9x13 baking pan, arrange potato wedges in a single layer.
3
In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, oregano, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
4
Pour the lemon broth mixture over the potatoes, making sure they are well coated and the liquid comes about halfway up the sides.
5
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
6
Remove from oven and gently stir the potatoes, baste them with the pan juices.
7
Return to oven and roast another 18-22 minutes until potatoes are golden, tender, and most of the liquid has been absorbed.

These are equally delicious hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Pro Tips

💡

Cut potatoes into even wedges so they roast at the same rate.

💡

The broth should come about halfway up the potatoes — they braise rather than just roast.

💡

Fresh oregano is incredible here, but dried works beautifully too.
