My husband says these are the best potatoes he's ever had!  They seem to be infused with lemon juice...and very moist but not greasy.

These were good and a nice change for someone who eats a lot of roasted potatoes.  I've done lots of different spices, but never used lemon juice.  I used 1/4 cup lemon juice for 3 potatoes, and next time I'll probably cut back. They were a bit too tangy, it overpowered the other seasonings.   I was thinking of doing 3 tbs. lemon juice and maybe 1 or 2 tbs veggie broth.  I will definately add some grated lemon peel next time!  Without it the potatoes are just tangy, you can't really tell it's lemon juice, but with it...mmmm.  I also used 2-1/2 cloves garlic, which might have been a bit too much unless you like'em garlicky!  But man, my house was stinky!  But overall they were definately good, and I will be making them again.  I think in addition to lemon peel, I'm going to throw in some artichoke hearts, tomatoes and capers.  I'll report on that later.  Thanks for the recipe.

Oh! I almost forgot.  I also only used 1 tbsp. oil.  I just tossed them a couple times during the cooking and sprayed them with some non-stick spray, and they were perfect.  I don't like a lot of oil and the tbsp was plenty.  Just don't let them cook too long in between tossing.
