Roasted potatoes never tasted so good. Potatoes are always one of my go to side dishes. They are economical, everyone loves them, and they go with just about anything.

WHAT TYPE OF POATOES TO USE?

My favorite type is Yukon Gold potatoes. They have a really creamy texture. Look for baby Yukon Gold potatoes. If they aren’t really small, cut them in fourths instead of halves. Red potatoes and russet potatoes also work really well in this recipe.

HOW TO MAKE GREEK POTATOES:

Roast the potatoes. The potatoes are cut in half, tossed with oil, salt, and pepper and roasted in a hot oven for 35 to 40 minutes. They should get very browned and crispy. It’s a good idea to flip them over halfway through.
Toss potatoes with garlic, pepperoncini peppers, and oregano.
Sprinkle with lemon zest, feta, and parsley.

GREEK POTATOES RECIPE TIPS:

Be sure the potatoes are really spread out on the baking sheet. Use 2 baking sheets if necessary.

The pepperoncini peppers add some kick. If you want these Greek Potatoes to be spicy, add 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.
