I love these potaotoes! We always called them Grecian Patatoes. at any rate for a little extra effort these spuds are worh it! P.S. The Greek Lemon chicken is great also. -
Really very good but I might have goofed. I cut the potatoes into 8 pieces and this might have been too small as they cooked in half the time. Also the coating mixture burned on the botton of the dish. Maybe oven was too hot. Will adjust next time. But a great recipe. -
An excellant recipe for Grecian potatoes!Thanks ,T -
I love Greek anything so I knew this was going to be a winner for me! I plan to make these often at the families request, as they loved them too!

This is a great receipe, tastes fantastic. The only suggestion I might make (in order to make them more authentically Greek) is to parboil for ten to fifteen minutes first and then cover them with foil when cooking so that they don't get crispy. Aside from that, this receipe is perfect, thank you for posting it !
