These lemony roasted potatoes are a simple, flavorful side dish. 

Ingredients: 

2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
2 tablespoons (or so) olive oil
Juice from 1 lemon
Salt 
Fresh ground pepper
1 garlic clove, smashed by hitting the back of a knife with the heel of your hand
2 sprigs fresh rosemary

Recipe directions: 

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Cut the potatoes, unpeeled, into 1-inch chunks. Add the potatoes to the water, and boil for about 8 minutes or until the tip of a knife slips easily into the potatoes. Drain the potatoes and dry them with a paper towel. Spread them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper, and add the smashed garlic and rosemary sprigs. Toss everything together with your hands, and arrange the potatoes in a single layer, not touching each other, on the baking sheet. Roast the potatoes for 10 minutes and stir them around. Roast for another 10 minutes or until the potatoes are golden and crunchy. Remove the garlic and rosemary sprigs before serving.
