Lemon Garlic Potato Packer Recipes

GREEK LEMON POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C/390°F (180°Cfan).
• Cut potatoes: Peel potatoes and cut large ones into thick wedges - about 3cm / 1.2" thick - and medium ones into 3 (see photo in post).
• Coat potatoes: Place potatoes in a roasting pan with all the other ingredients. Toss well.
• Roast 45 minutes: Roast for 20 minutes. Turn potatoes, roast for a further 25 to 30 minutes until the liquid is mostly absorbed by potatoes/evaporated and you're left with mainly oil in the pan.
• To crisp the potatoes (optional): Transfer potatoes to a separate tray. (Note 3) Tilt the original roasting pan and scoop off as much of the oil as you can (some juices is ok), then drizzle over the potatoes.
• Roast 35 minutes: Transfer potatoes to oven and roast for 35 - 40 minutes, turning once or twice, until potatoes are golden and a bit crispy on the edges.
• Heat pan juices: Return pan #1 with the garlic juices to the oven for the last 5 - 10 minutes or so to reduce down and make the garlic golden. (Optional, Note 4)
• Plate up: Transfer potatoes to serving platter. Drizzle over the reduced garlic pan juices (or toss potatoes in the pan). Serve, garnished with lemon wedges and oregano if desired.

LEMON-GARLIC POTATO PACKER

Steps:

• In large bowl, toss potatoes, garlic, olive oil, lemon peel, salt, and pepper until potatoes are evenly coated.
• Layer two 30" by 18" sheets, heavy-duty foil to make a double thickness. Place potato mixture on center of stacked foil. Bring short ends of foil up and over potatoes; fold several times to seal well. Fold remaining sides of foil several times to seal in juices.
• Place packet on grill over medium heat and cook 30 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender, turning packet over once halfway through grilling.
• Shallot & Herb Packet Variation:.
• Prepare as above but omit garlic. Add 2 medium shallots, thinly sliced, and 2 tsp minced fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 tsp dried thyme. Wrap and grill as above. Sprinkle with 1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley before serving.

LEMON-GARLIC ROASTED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Wash potatoes and pat dry. Cut abnormally large potatoes in half so all potatoes are around the same size (no bigger than 1/2 of a ping pong ball). Transfer to a metal baking pan.
• Mix lemon juice and olive oil together and drizzle over potatoes. Sprinkle with garlic powder and salt. Toss until well coated and spread evenly in the pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Stir and bake until tender, about 10 minutes more.

LEMON, GARLIC & BAY ROAST POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel and halve or quarter the potatoes, if large, so they're all the same size. Put in a large pan and cover with cold water and a pinch of salt. Add one half of the garlic bulb. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 mins until a knife goes easily through the potatoes, then drain well, reserving the garlic. Leave the potatoes to steam-dry in the pan for 10 mins. Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7.
• Pour the oil into a large baking tray or two smaller ones - it should cover the base of the tray, so add a little more if you need to. Heat in the oven for 10 mins until really hot. Carefully transfer the spuds to the oil, leaving lots of room between each one (otherwise they will steam, rather than roast) and coat in the oil, taking care not to splash yourself. Season, then add both halves of the garlic, blanched and not, and nestle the bay leaves underneath the spuds.
• Roast for 40-45 mins, turning halfway through and coating in more oil, until golden and crunchy. Season with more salt and pepper, and zest the lemon directly over the potatoes so the essential oils spritz over the spuds. Serve with the roasted garlic in its shell.

ROASTED POTATOES WITH GARLIC, LEMON, AND OREGANO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Place the potatoes in a single layer in a 13-x-9-inch baking dish and pour the oil over them. Add the garlic, dried oregano, salt and pepper to taste and toss well to coat with the oil.
• Bake the potatoes for 15 minutes. Add the stock, toss and bake for 10 minutes more. Add the lemon juice, toss and bake for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until the potatoes are cooked through. If you like, preheat the broiler and broil the potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Sprinkle with the fresh oregano and serve at once.
• Variation:
• Dissolve 1 tablespoon tomato paste in the stock, and reduce the amount of lemon juice to taste. Substitute Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for the black pepper.

GARLIC LEMON POTATOES

Steps:

• Heat gas grill on medium or charcoal grill until coals are ash white.
• Mound potatoes and onion evenly among 6 (12-inch) squares heavy-duty aluminum foil sprayed with no-stick cooking spray (I love using the new non-stick foil - no spray needed). Sprinkle with garlic, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Dot each serving with 2 teaspoons butter.
• Bring edges of foil up to center; tightly seal top and sides of each packet.
• Place foil packets onto grill. Cover; grill, turning once, until potatoes are tender (15 to 30 minutes but will vary depending on grill temp).
• Oven Directions: Heat oven to 375°F Prepare potatoes and onion mixture as directed above. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
