ROASTED LEMON PEPPER POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
• Trim off long edges of the russet potatoes so that they can lay flat. Cut in half lengthwise and rinse in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch. Pat dry on paper towels. Season generously with black pepper, cayenne, and salt.
• Coat the bottom of a large baking dish with olive oil. Lay potatoes seasoned-sides down in the dish. Brush tops with more olive oil; season with pepper, cayenne, and salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove and carefully flip potatoes over. Let rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine broth with lemon zest and juice. Pour mixture over the potatoes. Scrape zest off the tops of the potatoes and back into the broth. Stick oregano sprigs between the potatoes. Season with pepper. Shake the dish lightly to slosh the sauce back and forth.
• Return potatoes to the oven and roast for 15 minutes. Flip again; continue roasting until very soft and creamy on the inside and crusty on the outside, 10 to 15 minutes more. Flip over once more to serve. Drizzle more olive oil on top; sprinkle with pepper and more oregano.

GRILLED LEMON-PEPPER POTATOES

Steps:

Grill over high heat, flipping once, 15 minutes; season with salt. Mix 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 tablespoon cider vinegar, some chopped chives, a pinch of sugar, and salt and pepper to taste; serve on the side for dipping.

BONNIE'S LEMON PEPPERONCINI POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• 1. Select thin skinned red potatoes if possible. Scrub them well, remove any blemishes, and no need to peel.
• 2. Cut the small potatoes into quarters, cut larger potatoes into chunks. They cook better if they are more uniform in size.
• 3. They should look like this.
• 4. Cover the potatoes with about an inch of water and bring them to a boil and turn the heat to low and simmer until done but still firm. Don't overcook.
• 5. Chop the onions fine and set aside.
• 6. Select four small pepperoncini peppers and remove the stems, but not the seeds.
• 7. Chop the pepperoncini peppers fine. Gather all the other ingredients to make the dish.
• 8. When the potatoes are tender, drain in a colander, then dump the potatoes back into the hot pot with the lid.
• 9. Push the potatoes to the side of the pot, and quickly add the rest of the ingredients, starting with the butter first. Push the potatoes back over the top of the ingredients, add the lid and turn the burner on low for 2 minutes. Turn the burner off, This melts the butter, and heats up the garlic, peppers and seasonings.
• 10. Gently mix the potatoes until they are coated with the hot butter mixture. At this point, you have a great side dish that goes with any fish, meat, pork, or chicken! But we are making an equally great potato salad, so we will now need to let this mixture come to room temperature before adding the dressing.
• 11. Mix the mayonnaise and the celery seeds until well combined. Fold the mixture into the cooled potatoes. I love this texture, it is creamy like mashed potatoes with small chunks of potatoes. I use my spoon to cut any potatoes that are too big. Let the mixture sit overnight or at least 6 hours until the flavors have married. Enjoy!
• 12. Here is how it looks!
• 13. Cook's Tip: Usually, I make this recipe as a hot potato side dish, and then make what is leftover into a potato salad to be used the next day.
• 14. Yummy! Want a bite?

• Variation:
• Dissolve 1 tablespoon tomato paste in the stock, and reduce the amount of lemon juice to taste. Substitute Aleppo pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for the black pepper.
