2¼ lb. Red bliss potatoes trimmed and washed
½ cup Extra virgin olive oil
3 ea. Bay leaves
1½ tbsp. Dried oregano
1 tsp. Salt
Ground black pepper to taste.
6 ea. Garlic cloves, minced
1 ½ tbsp. Oregano, chopped

- Transfer the oiled, seasoned potatoes to a hot cast iron skillet.
- Place the skillet in a 425 F oven and roast for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even browning.
- Reduce the heat to 375 F and continue to roast for an additional 15-to-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the garlic towards the end of the cooking process (5-to-10 minutes remaining in the cooking time) to prevent it from burning and creating a bitter flavor.
- Place in a warm serving bowl and sprinkle with chopped oregano and parsley.
