How To Make Mojo Potatoes:

  1. Step 1: Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  2. Step 2: Prepare Potatoes: Wash, scrub, and thoroughly dry the potatoes. Cut them into wedges or cubes of an even size.
  3. Step 3: Make Spice Blend: In a small bowl, mix the oregano, thyme, black pepper, and cayenne to create the spice blend.
  4. Step 4: Season Potatoes: Toss the potato wedges or cubes in the spice blend until they are evenly coated. (A drizzle of olive oil, though not listed, can help the spices adhere better.)
  5. Step 5: Bake Potatoes: Arrange the seasoned potatoes on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and crispy, flipping the potatoes halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Step 6: Prepare Sauce: While the potatoes bake, mix the mayonnaise, garlic powder, lemon juice, pepper, salt, and smoked paprika in a bowl. Whisk until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  7. Step 7: Serve: Once the potatoes are done, transfer them to a serving platter. Drizzle the sauce over them or serve it on the side for dipping.
