Herb Roasted Potatoes with Feta Cheese

I love these as a side dish with grilled chicken or steak. Topping the potatoes with the feta cheese when they come out of the oven makes the feta melt onto the potatoes a little...YUMMY!



Herb Roasted Potatoes with Feta Cheese

5 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into wedges
6 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup olive oil
1 cup water
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
Salt to taste
Ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 cup crumbled good-quality feta cheese

Pre-heat an oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly oil a large baking dish.
Stir the potatoes, garlic, olive oil, water, lemon juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl until the potatoes are evenly coated; pour into the prepared baking dish.
Roast in the preheated oven until the potatoes begin to brown, about 40 minutes. Season the potatoes with the oregano. If the dish appears dry, pour another 1/2 cup water into the dish. Return to the oven and bake about 40 minutes more. If you like the potatoes a little more crispy, you can put them under the broiler for 5 to 10 minutes. Top with the crumbled feta cheese to serve.
