Greek Oven Potatoes

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Palatable Possibilities: Greek Oven Potatoes! This sounds crazy, but these potatoes are baked and steamed at the same time. The end result is tenderness and flavorful, an extraordinary combination. It sounds like a lot of liquid, but trust me, the potatoes literally soak up the moisture. They can handle it. The spice mix does a great job of penetrating the potatoes while teasing the senses with a whiff of aromatic pleasantness. For a side dish that is anything but hum-drum, give this one a whirl. No regrets.

1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt

2/3 cup vegetable broth

1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Fresh basil, for garnish

Preheat oven to 400°. Spray a small baking dish with nonstick oil. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine seasoned salt, black pepper, smoky paprika, and dried rosemary. Set aside. Arrange red potato wedges in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with spice mix. Toss briefly to cover all. In a bowl, whisk together garlic cloves, olive oil, lemon juice, and vegetable broth.

    • Than you. I go to a lot of craft and art shows to pick them up. Vintage stores are another resource. Typically, an artist buys up old flat wear and then does a stamping process. It’s fun. You may find some on Etsy or Pinterest, too. Happy hunting. 👀🍃
