1 each lemon, juiced and zested Use a fresh lemon for optimum taste.
1 tsp dried oregano Adds a classic Greek flavor.

4 oz feta cheese, crumbled Substitute with goat cheese for a different flavor.

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss until they are well coated with the lemon and oil mixture.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Cooking

Roast in the oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy.
Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

Cut the potatoes into similar sizes for even cooking. For extra flavor, try marinating the potatoes for 30 minutes before roasting. If you like heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the olive oil mixture.
