What kind of potatoes are best?

I like red potatoes for this recipe.  Their waxy texture holds up nicely in the slow cooker.  Yukon gold potatoes would be good too.

What to serve with Slow Cooker Greek Lemon Potatoes?

These flavorful potatoes make the perfect side dish to roast chicken, grilled fish, garlicky shrimp, or pita pockets filled with your favorite Mediterranean ingredients. 

We also like them with Spicy Baked Chicken Legs and Bacon-Wrapped Spinach & Goat Cheese Chicken.

How long are cooked potatoes good for?  

Cooked potatoes can be kept in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

They can also be frozen, however, their texture might change once thawed, so the quality may not be the same.

NOTES:

• This recipe is naturally vegan, however, you could add a tablespoon or two of butter to the slow cooker when the potatoes are done cooking to add a nice, rich flavor.
• Lemon is such an integral part of this recipe, please make sure you’re using fresh lemons.  Plastic squeeze bottles of lemon juice from the store are not the same.
• 1 lemon = approximately 1 ounce of lemon juice.  If you love lemon like I do, feel free to the full 2 ounces (2 lemons).  Use less if desired.

Instructions

 

• Cut each potato in half length-wise, then in half again length-wise, then cut the potatoes into largish, 1"-1.5" chunks. Add the potatoes to the slow cooker.
