Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use other types of potatoes for this recipe?
While Wada Farms Smalls are ideal for their creamy texture and small size, you can also use Yukon Golds or Reds, which hold their shape well during roasting. Russets will work too, but they will be a bit fluffier inside.

Can I make these potatoes ahead of time?
Yes, you can! These potatoes are great for meal prep. Roast them, let them cool, and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat in a hot oven for about 10 minutes to get them crispy again.

Can I make these potatoes vegan?
Absolutely! Simply swap the chicken stock for vegetable broth, and you’re good to go. The olive oil already gives them plenty of richness, so no other substitutions are necessary.

More Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get my Greek potatoes extra crispy?
To get the crispiest potatoes, make sure to spread them out in a single layer on the baking sheet with plenty of space between each piece. Toss them halfway through cooking for even crisping. You can also broil them for the last 2-3 minutes if you like them extra crispy!

Can I use dried oregano instead of fresh?
Yes, you can use dried oregano if fresh isn’t available. Use about 1 teaspoon of dried oregano instead of the 2 teaspoons of fresh. Keep in mind that dried herbs tend to be more concentrated in flavor, so adjust to your taste.

Can I add other herbs or seasonings to these potatoes?
Definitely! Feel free to experiment by adding herbs like thyme, rosemary, or dill. A sprinkle of grated Parmesan or crumbled feta cheese can also make for a wonderful topping, bringing in even more Mediterranean flavor.

Can I cook these potatoes in an air fryer?
Yes, you can! To cook them in an air fryer, preheat to 400°F and cook in batches for about 20-25 minutes, shaking halfway through. The air fryer will give them an extra crispy texture.

Ingredients Needed for Greek Potatoes

• Chicken stock (or vegetable broth for a vegetarian version)

• Seasonings: garlic powder, oregano salt & pepper
• 2 pounds potatoes (Wada Farms Smalls are perfect), cut into 1-inch pieces

How to Make Greek Potatoes

Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Prepare the Lemon-Garlic Mixture:
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the chicken stock, olive oil, lemon juice (reserve the zest for later), garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Toss the Potatoes:
Add the 1-inch potato pieces to the bowl, tossing them in the lemon-garlic mixture until they’re fully coated.

Roast the Potatoes:
Spread the potatoes and all of the liquid evenly on a lined baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.

Finish with Fresh Herbs:
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. In a large bowl, toss the roasted potatoes with the reserved lemon zest, fresh oregano, and parsley.

Serve and Enjoy!
Serve warm as a side dish to your favorite Mediterranean meal, grilled meats, or even on their own as a snack!
