Ingredients

For the Spice Mix

  • 1 tsp Lawry's seasoned salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary

For the Potatoes

  • 4 large baking potatoes, (russet, Idaho, or Yukon gold), peeled, washed, cut into wedges
  • 8 large garlic cloves, chopped
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for coating
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 1/4 cups vegetable or chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup parsley leaves, coarsely chopped

Instructions

  • Get ready: Preheat the oven to 400°F. Coat a large, 9”X13-inch baking dish (I use this one) in a thin layer of olive oil.
  • Make the spice mix: In a small bowl, mix together the seasoned salt, black pepper, sweet paprika, and dried rosemary.
  • Prep the potatoes: Place the potato wedges in the oiled baking dish and sprinkle with the spice mix. Toss to evenly to distribute the spices.
  • Prep the broth: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the chopped garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and broth. Pour over the potatoes.
  • Bake the potatoes: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
  • Finish the potatoes: Remove the potatoes from the oven, uncover, and sprinkle on the Parmesan cheese. Return to the oven, uncovered, and roast until the potatoes are cooked through and have turned a nice golden brown with a little crust forming, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley, and serve. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you want to add a touch more browning and color to the potatoes, you can finish them under the broiler. Just be sure to keep a close eye on them so they don’t burn! 
  • If you don’t have seasoned salt on hand, you can use kosher salt instead.
  • Visit our shop to browse quality Mediterranean ingredients including olive oils, honey, jams and spices.
