Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Peel and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into thick wedges, about 1 to 1.5 inches.
  3. In a large roasting pan, toss your potato wedges with minced garlic, olive oil, fresh lemon juice, chicken broth, dried oregano, paprika, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for 40 minutes.
  5. After 40 minutes, carefully remove the foil and toss the potatoes. Return them to the oven uncovered for another 25 minutes.
