- 3 pounds small red potatoes ,cut into small pieces (about 1 inch big)
- 2 Sunkist lemons ,juiced (about ¼ cup lemon juice)
- zest of 1 lemon
- 1 whole head garlic ,broken up and unpeeled
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup chopped basil
- 2 tablespoons chopped thin chives
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- ⅛ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
Place a pan large enough to hold the chopped potatoes in the oven (empty) and preheat oven to 400 degrees F. The preheated pan helps keep the potatoes from sticking immediately to the pan.
Combine chopped basil, chives, parsley, lemon juice, garlic cloves, and lemon zest in a bowl and mix well. Pour the mixture over the potatoes, season with pepper, and mix well.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, stirring every 10 minutes so the potatoes don't stick to the pan.
To serve you can remove the garlic cloves, or chose to serve them along with the potatoes.
