Lemon Garlic Potatoes

This recipe can be stored in the freezer for a rainy day or made to order. It can also be adjusted depending on your taste. You can add more garlic if you like it more garlicky or add more lemon if you like it more lemony. Its flexible, easy and delicious. Bonus: the same marinade can be used for chicken, fish or shrimp. I often make a 1 tray bake with both the potatoes and protein to serve for dinner.

¼ cup good quality extra virgin olive oil
½ Tbsp celtic sea salt, or himalyan salt
6 garlic cloves, crushed
juice of 2 squeezed lemons
1-2 Tbsp dried oregano
½ tsp lemon pepper (optional)
8 medium size potatoes

Prepare the potatoes by washing them and cutting them into quarters, and set aside. Place all of the ingredients in a bowl or in a plastic freezer bag and then add the potatoes. Mix well. At this point you can: a) freeze what you have for a later date, b) marinate them in the fridge for up to 24 hours, or c) place them on a roasting pan in the oven at 375 for up to 45 mins, checking and turning them halfway. Adjust taste by adding a squeeze a lemon juice once they are cooked. Enjoy!
