Greek Potatoes

This is my brothers favorite! If I ever have the oven on for a longer period of time (ex. cooking a roast or chicken) this is the side dish I make. It is an awesome way to shake-up the potato routine and disappears every time:)

 

Greek Potatoes

6 medium potatoes, cubed
1/2 c. lemon juice
1/3 c. oil
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 1/2 tsp. oregano
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 c. hot water

Toss together potatoes, lemon juice, oils, spices and garlic in 9 x 13. Add water. Bake, uncovered at 475 for 1 1/2 hours. Stir every 20 minutes, adding more water if necessary. Allow water to evaporate and garnish with parsley.
