Who doesn’t love perfectly roasted red potatoes? A little garlic, a little citrus, a little cheese and a little time and you’ve got the perfect side dish. A light crunchy outside, creamy buttery inside. I used red potatoes in my garlic red potato recipe, but you could use any potato you want. Fingerlings are great made this way too. You get lightly crunchy outsides. And fluffy, tender insides. The perfect potatoes!

Garlic Red Potatoes

The addition of lemon really lightens these garlic red potatoes. I wouldn’t leave it out. If you want a bit of a kick, add a few good pinches of dried red pepper flake. To ensure your potatoes come out perfectly, select potatoes that are all approximately the same sizes when quartered. If you use smaller potatoes, such as fingerlings or baby potatoes, you can keep them whole if you wish.

I also make these potatoes on my grill. I use a grill basket to make cooking them easier. It also makes for easy cleanup.
