Creating Olia Hercules’ Green Potatoes is simple and enjoyable. Follow these steps to bring this culinary delight to your table:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare Potatoes: Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. If they are larger, cut them in half or quarters to ensure even cooking.
3. Season Potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
4. Roast Potatoes: Spread the potatoes on a large baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender.
5. Prepare Herb Mixture: While the potatoes are roasting, mix together the chopped herbs, minced garlic, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a separate bowl. Stir well to combine.
6. Toss with Herb Mixture: Once the potatoes are roasted, remove them from the oven. Transfer the hot potatoes back to a large bowl and immediately add the herb mixture. Toss gently to ensure all the potatoes are covered in the fresh herbs and garlic.
7. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the potatoes and adjust seasoning with extra salt or pepper if needed.
8. Serve: Transfer the beautifully herb-coated potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired.
