The Best Roasted Potatoes
These lemon herb roasted potatoes are absolutely delightful, made with olive oil, melted butter, garlic, lemon juice, herb and honey.
Adding a bit of honey really makes the potatoes so much more delicious as the bottom part of these roasted potatoes became caramelized, ahhh, heavenly.
To make sure that your roasted potatoes get the amazing flavors of the herb and lemon, slice each potato horizontally like hasselback potatoes, but without cutting through.
Every slice is coated with the buttery, garlicky flavor. Active time to make this dish is only 15 minutes! The rest is baking time.

Notes

I used Butter Potatoes everyone loved them so easy and looks impressive for a dinner party
I make potatoes similar to this recipe in the cut I put a very thin slice of onion for the grill and wrap them in foil.
i usually don’t make a recipe for company before trying it out first. I wish I had done that with this recipe. The potatoes were slightly leathery and dry in consistency and lacked that pop of flavor I was hoping for.
Came out fine and were cute; guess I’m not a fan of lemon potatoes.
These look amazing! Planning on making them soon. I’m sure they taste great but I love the presentation.
I tried these potatoes. I thought I followed the recipe correctly. Mine were dry and little to know flavor, What did I do wrong? I saw you had garlic and lemons in the roasting pan, I did not do that..
Help
Your temp may be different. Add butter to moisturize back up.
It looks like you have extra, whole cloves of garlic in the pan with the potatoes? Can you please advise.
You can add 1 head of garlic cloves in the pan but not necessary.
Honey, huh? Well, with honey, I think these might be terrific with the roasted pork with applesauce I’m making this weekend. Thanks for the recipe!
Try it I am sure you will like it.
Would this recipe work for Russets? We just got a 5lb bag and would love to make these to use some of them up!
I think so but Russets are bigger so might take longer to roast.
If potatoes are large you can cut them in half lengthwise, stand the potatoes on the flat end & then cut.
These tators looks like the best tators I’ve ever seen on the net. I’m absolutely drooling right now. I’m falling in love.
Thanks Laura, you are too sweet. :)
