Instructions

Cut russet potatoes into thick wedges and place the potatoes in a bowl filled with cold water for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
When ready, drain the potatoes and pat them dry very well and transfer the potatoes to a foil lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper, dried oregano, paprika and toss to combine so the potatoes are coated evenly with the spice mixture.
Roast the potatoes for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
While the potatoes bake, make the lemon vinaigrette. To a bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon zest and lemon juice, chopped garlic and chopped parsley.
Once the potatoes are done, transfer them into a platter and drizzle the potatoes with the lemon vinaigrette and garnish with crumbled feta cheese, chopped parsley and mint and serve with tzatziki sauce and lemon wedges.

Notes

Instead of russet potatoes, Yukon gold would be a great substitute.
For a lower carb option, substitute the potatoes for cauliflower florets.
If fresh herbs aren't available, garnish the roasted Greek fries with ½ teaspoon of dried mint.
