These will be the best Greek potatoes you've ever tasted...crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. All with a wonderful lemon, garlic, and oregano flavor. What do these Greek potatoes go with? They go well with any Greek dish, but especially roast lamb or lamb chops. But of course they're still also wonderful cold, for breakfast, right out of the fridge!
Heavenly Greek Potatoes
"I’ve been eating these Greek potatoes my whole life. They showed up on the table at every family gathering—golden, crispy, lemony, and always made in big batches because no one could ever get enough. We come from a Greek family, and this recipe has been passed around (and tweaked) by just about everyone. But this version? It’s the one we keep coming back to. Simple, classic, and packed with flavor thanks to our Greek Seasoning—it’s the perfect mix of garlic, oregano, and citrusy punch. They’re just as good with roast chicken as they are next to grilled fish—or honestly, straight off the baking sheet."

Our Aegean Garlic & Herb Rub, with hints of oregano, cinnamon, and garlic, adds a nice Mediterranean-style flair to grilled or roasted lamb without the strong and typical mint flavor you find in other Greek blends.
