Garlic Roasted Potatoes with Lemon
As a runner who trains on a tight schedule, I cherish my off days when I trade my shoelaces for flip flops and just walk. It’s highly prized me-time, since most of my days are a whirlwind of work and cleaning and alltheboys.
Especially when the weather’s warm and sunny, allowing ourselves that refreshing outdoor time inevitably meansless time in the kitchen. Like, there’s 1% motivation to go inside and cook.
Thankfully, we have this scrumptious collection of Favorite Grill Recipes that are easy and let us enjoy the outdoors all evening long. And for our potato lovers, this irresistible Garlic Roasted Potatoes with Lemon is where it’s at.
These golden beauties take only 25 minutes to cook. They’re ultra lemony, garlicky, tender, and perfect when you’re short on time. They taste like summer on your plate. We love these garlic roasted potatoes for quick family dinners as well as gatherings.
How to Roast Potatoes SO they’re Perfectly Browned and Tender
- Russet potatoes are a reliable choice for tender, fluffy roasted potatoes. However, if you need to use up some red potatoes or yukon golds in your kitchen, those are a delicious alternative.
- Though you certainly don’t have to peel your russets, we recommend doing so for best flavor absorption (also good for eaters who don’t love the skin on.)
- Be sure your potatoes are cut to 1-inch sized cubes so that they cook evenly throughout. The bite-sized pieces also allow for faster cooking.
- It’s very important to fully towel-dry the potato cubes prior to cooking; don’t skimp on this step. Drying the potatoes will allow them to roast properly, without excess moisture causing them to become “steamed.”
- Always arrange potato cubes in a single, even layer on a large, foil-covered sheet pan. A single layer, uncrowded pan of potatoes will give you even browning throughout.
- If you’d like your finished potatoes even more browned, simply let them sit under the broiler for a couple of minutes and watch so they don’t burn. Serve them immediately, while the tops are nice and crisp.
Main Dishes to go with your Potatoes
- BBQ Pork Tenderloin: This Peach BBQ Pork Tenderloin recipe makes tasty use of juicy summer peaches. The peach BBQ sauce is magical with tender grilled pork tenderloin.
- Hawaiian BBQ Grilled Chicken: This Hawaiian BBQ Grilled Chicken is inspired by the bright, lively flavors of Hawaii. Friends and family love this flavorful dish.
- Lemon Dijon Grilled Chicken: Grill up some Lemon Dijon Grilled Chicken before summer’s over. It’s a tasty and healthy dinner everyone will appreciate. Tender, flavorful, and fabulously easy for any night of the week.
- Garlic Marinated Ribeye Steaks: If you’re looking for a change of pace, try these Garlic Marinated Ribeye Steaks. Big on flavor and melt-in-your-mouth tenderness…perfect grilling all summer long.

I think potatoes are underrated. This recipe proves that the humble spud can be elevated to a thing of beauty!
★★★★★
Nothing like a good squeeze of lime to complete a potato recipe! I just love roasted potatoes so I will be giving this a go!
★★★★★
We love garlic in everything, and roasted potatoes are right up our alley. Love the touch of the lemon. Thanks for this!
We eat a lot of potatoes so this is a good recipe for my family. I would never think of flavoring potatoes with lemon but it sounds delicious
★★★★★
Oh yes I love how lemony and garlicky these potatoes are. Perfect flavor combination and they look so tender and fluffy!
★★★★★
I love that the garlic adds so much savory goodness here while the lemon adds both freshness and tang! What a yummy side dish!
★★★★★
My family loves this dish and it is so simple to make that I plan it in our weekly plan often.
★★★★★
Roast potatoes are welcome on my plate any time! I get mine extra crispy by heating the sheet pan in the oven with the fat on for a little while, and then putting it on the stove to quickly get the potatoes coated in oil while it is hot! I love the addition of lemon and garlic to them, I must do that next time I make them. Would be perfect with chicken!
★★★★★
These roasted potatoes are so delicious! I especially love the flavor that the lemon gives them, so good!
Thank you so much, Emily!
This looks so tasty! I love simple potato recipes like this that let the spud shine. This is perfection.
★★★★★
We love potatoes over here and have had quite a bit of these lately. The addition of garlic and lemon adds so much extra flavour to these potatoes and makes them perfect. I will make these for the bbq this weekend as a side dish.
