Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Scrub the potatoes and cut them into thick wedges. Soak these wedges in cold water for 20 minutes to remove excess starch, then dry them well.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Pour chicken broth into the pan, just enough to coat the bottom.
  6. Roast the potatoes for 40-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
  7. For extra crunch, broil the potatoes for an additional 3-5 minutes.
  8. Garnish with fresh herbs or crumbled feta if desired and serve hot.
