A delightful way to enjoy a nutritious side dish that doesn’t skimp on flavor. The combination of tender potatoes, creamy feta, and aromatic herbs creates a symphony of flavors that can elevate any meal.
Ingredients
Scale:
2 pounds baby potatoes (or any small potatoes, halved)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
8 ounces feta cheese (preferably herbed feta)
1 tablespoon fresh oregano
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 lemon (zested and juiced)
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, combine the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until the potatoes are well coated.
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking dish or sheet.
Crumble the feta cheese over the potatoes. Sprinkle the fresh oregano and thyme, along with the lemon zest and juice, evenly over the top.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and slightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if using. Serve warm.
