Good idea. had to bump up the seasonings and cook for longer. Thanks, still very tasty!

Pretty bland (and I even added extra garlic). Maybe I did something wrong.

Really good potatoes! Just loved all that garlic flavor. The lemon was subtle and I may add a little of lemon juice as well next time just to boost that flavor a bit. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This is great. I cooked my potatoes in my steamer machine. And then cut them in a good size so they would get crisp faster. Another time I may add just a dash or two of fresh lemon juice, just to give it more flavor. Thanks Bluemoon. Made for Holiday tag.

Very nice potato dish. I especially liked the lemon zest in this. Mine turned out nice and crispy. Thanks
