Lemon Herb Roasted Potatoes by Alecto the Night Owl

2 1/2 lbs red potatoes
1/4 c olive oil
2 tbs lemon juice
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp thyme
1/4 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp pepper

Pre-heat oven to 425°. Wash potatoes, rinse and pat dry. Dice potatoes into 3/4" cubes. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, salt, oregano, thyme, paprika and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well. Add potatoes and toss. Arrange on an oiled or non-stick baking sheet and bake for about 35 minutes. Turn potatoes at 15 minutes. Bake until tender and well browned.

I sometimes make up the oil mixture and keep it in the fridge. The herbs infuse into the oil and make the potatoes a little tastier.
