Lemon-Garlic Roasted Potatoes
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Wash the potatoes and pat them dry. Cut any unusually large potatoes in half so they are all roughly the same size (no bigger than half a ping pong ball). Transfer them to a metal baking pan.

  3. 3

    Combine the lemon juice and olive oil, then drizzle over the potatoes. Sprinkle with the garlic powder and salt. Toss until evenly coated and spread them out in the pan.

  4. 4

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Stir and continue baking until tender, about 10 minutes more.
