Lemon and Parsley Potatoes

Such bright, flavorful potatoes that were so delicious! I know I veered off from the preparation technique quite a bit, but I'm sure the resulting flavor was essentially the same. First of all, I did not peel the potatoes, as I like crispy skins. I also did not parboil the potatoes. I roasted them at 450 degrees, covered with foil, on the lower rack of the oven for 10 minutes, then stirred them, sprinkled with lemon juice as well as the zest/parsley mixture, and roasted them uncovered for another 15 minutes. They were perfect! Made by a Tasty Tester for ZWT 9.

I LOVED these potatoes with the crispy exterior, creamy interior, and a bright but light lemon flavor. Made for Mike and the Appliance Killers, ZWT 9.

These have been the best roast potatoes I have made using Carisma potatoes (low GI white potatoe), for the first time I got a crispy outside so from now on I will be parboiling them in small cubed size and then baking (I did parboil and then after draining put them in a bowl and drizzled the oil over and gave them a good toss before putting them in the prepared tray - love the idea of the parchment/baking paper made things so much easier and no sticking and clean up a breeze). The taste was fantastic and the balance perfect not to strong in the lemon (from the DD's lemon tree) and I used fresh parsley plucked straight from the herb garden, cooking times were perfect a real winner, thank you **Jubes**, made for Make My Recipe - Edition 15.

I cut the recipe in half for the 2 of us, & did not peel the russet potatoes I used (we like the taste of the skin!) & used lemon pepper instead of the usual S&P! Not major changes, just a couple of slight variations from the recipe, I thought! Anyway, we loved 'em especially with the slight lemon taste, & I'll be keeping the recipe around to make again, for sure! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block recipe tag]

These potatoes are so good! I usually roast with the usual olive oil and rosemary, but these are going into my best of the best collection. The lemon zest just adds so much flavor, and the preparation technique yields crispy, fully cooked potatoes. I dusted these with freshly ground sea salt just before serving and the flavors just POP! Yum! Thanks so much for posting - made for ZWT9, team Gourmet Goddesses.
