Ingredients

  • 4 lbs. russet potatoes, peeled and wedged
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/3 cup olive oil tips & tricks
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice tips & tricks
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. fresh rosemary, finely chopped tips & tricks
  • 1 tsp. ground Himalayan sea salt, or to taste and divided
  • 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper, or to taste and divided (I always use mixed peppercorns)
  • 1 tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped tips & tricks
  • few lemon wedges, for serving

Directions

  • Add the potato wedges to a large bowl filled with very cold water and let them soak for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, add chicken broth, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Whisk the ingredients until very well blended and set aside for now.
  • Preheat oven to 375ºF/190ºC and grease a baking dish; set aside.
  • An hour later, drain and place the potatoes in a single layer on a cutting board lined with a clean dish towel. Put another clean dish towel on top and dry them.
  • Transfer them to a large bowl and pour the seasoned dressing on top. Toss them very well to coat and transfer the wedges to the prepared baking dish.
  • Arrange them in a single layer before seasoning generously with ground sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Transfer to the preheated oven and cook for 1:00 hour.
  • About 40 minutes later, remove from the heat and flip the wedges. Sprinkle on chopped rosemary, add a little bit more ground sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Return back to the oven for the remaining 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and flip them again.
  • Turn the temperature to broil and return the dish back to the oven; set the timer for 10 minutes.
  • When time is up, remove the potatoes from the heat and flip them once again.
  • Place the dish back under the broiler for another 5 minutes before taking the potato wedges out from the heat, flip them for the last time and return them back under the broiler for the final 5 minutes.
  • Transfer them to a serving dish, sprinkle on some chopped parsley and garnish with lemon wedges.
