Ingredients
  

For the Potatoes
  • 4 medium Yukon Gold Potatoes Substitution: Other potatoes can be used, but Yukon Gold is recommended for the best flavor and texture.
For the Marinade
  • 1/4 cup Olive Oil Substitution: Can use vegetable oil if needed, though it lacks the flavor of olive oil.
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice Tip: Using fresh lemons rather than bottled juice enhances flavor significantly.
  • 3 cloves Garlic (minced) Prep Note: Fresh garlic is preferred but garlic powder can be used in less quantity for a more subdued flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper (freshly ground)
For the Finish
  • 1 cup Crumbled Feta Cheese Tip: Use a block of feta and crumble it for a creamier consistency.
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley (chopped for garnish)

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking sheet
  • Large bowl

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) for optimal roasting.
  2. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk until well blended.
  3. Add the Yukon Gold potato wedges to the marinade and toss gently until every wedge is evenly coated.
  4. Spread the marinated potato wedges out in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring enough space between them.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the potatoes for about 45 minutes, turning halfway through.
  6. Remove the potatoes from the oven, sprinkle crumbled feta cheese over them while hot to create creamy pockets.
  7. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving warm as a delightful side dish or snack.
