Step-by-Step Instructions for Greek Lemon Potatoes

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a large baking sheet with nonstick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, yellow mustard, kosher salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and chopped garlic until well combined.
Add the thick wedges of Yukon gold potatoes to the bowl. Toss the potatoes gently until evenly coated.
Spread the coated potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Pour the low-sodium chicken broth around the potatoes.
Cover the baking sheet tightly with aluminum foil and roast in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and continue roasting the potatoes for an additional 20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
