These delicious potatoes are the perfect side dish for pairing with nearly any main course. Whether you’re serving them alongside grilled proteins, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad, they bring a burst of bright and zesty flavor to any plate!
Ingredients You Need
- Baby Golden Potatoes – Quarter these just before cooking for the best texture and flavor.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil – This is a great way to add rich flavor. Plus, it helps the potatoes crisp up beautifully!
- Greek Seasoning – We love using this ingredient because it has a blend of herbs and spices that are quintessential to Greek cuisine. You can buy it at the store or easily mix up your own homemade Greek seasoning blend.
- Fresh Lemon Juice – Citrus adds a bright, tangy flavor that complements the seasoning beautifully.
- Black Pepper – Pepper gives the potatoes a subtle kick of heat and balances all of the other flavors.
How to Make Air Fryer Greek Potatoes
- Prep the potatoes. Wash the potatoes thoroughly before using a sharp knife to uniformly quarter them to make sure they cook evenly in the
air fryer . - Mix the ingredients. Add the potatoes, olive oil, Greek seasoning, lemon juice, and black pepper to a mixing bowl and toss to coat.
- Transfer to the
air fryer . Place the seasoned potatoes into theair fryer basket, spreading them out for even air circulation. - Cook the potatoes. Air fry the potatoes for the recommended time. Halfway through cooking, briefly remove the
air fryer basket and shake it — that will ensure that all of the potatoes cook evenly.
Variations
