BAKED MEYER LEMON FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Peel potatoes and cut into 3/8-inch thick slices (lengthwise) cut again into 3/8-inch thick fries. Place the potatoes into a bowl with cold water; this will help keep the fries crisp and white. Just before cooking, drain water and place on paper towel, pat dry completely. Put in a bowl; add olive oil, 1 tablespoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Toss well and lay out in 1 layer on nonstick baking sheets. Bake until light brown. Cook for approximately 30 to 40 minutes, turning frequently until golden brown.
• Remove from oven. Add lemon zest, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper. Toss well and serve.

LEMON-PEPPER FRIES

Steps:

• Peel and rinse the potatoes. Slice them lengthwise into thin slices, and then into thin sticks. Place the potato sticks in a bowl and cover them with cold water. Swish them around, then pour off the water and replace it with fresh water. Swish them around again and pour off the water, then cover with fresh water and let soak for 2 to 3 hours.
• Make the seasoning: Mix the pepper, lemon zest, salt, garlic powder, mustard powder and onion powder in a large bowl and set aside.
• When you're ready to make the fries, heat about 3 inches of oil in a heavy pot until a deep-fry thermometer registers 300 degrees F.
• Drain the potatoes and lay them out on baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot them with more paper towels to dry. Carefully drop half of the fries into the oil and cook until they start to soften, 2 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on fresh paper towels. Repeat with the remaining fries.
• Increase the oil temperature to 400 degrees F. Fry the potatoes in two batches again until golden brown and crisp, 2 to 5 minutes, returning the oil to 400 degrees F between batches. Remove the fries from the oil, add to the bowl with the seasoning and toss to coat. When all the fries are cooked, toss with the parsley.

LEMON-PEPPER LAMB CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, 1 tablespoon of the oil, lemon-pepper seasoning and marjoram in small bowl. Spoon over both sides of lamb chops. Marinate at room temperature 10 minutes or refrigerate up to 1 hour.
• Heat reamaining 1 teaspoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Cook lamb chops, in batches if necessary, 6 to 8 minutes or until pink in center for medium-rare, turning once.

LEMON-PEPPER OVEN FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Wash but don't peel potatoes.
• Quarter potatoes lengthwise, then cut quarters in half (also lengthwise)- or cut in 1/4-inch slices.
• Toss potatoes with oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, lemon zest, garlic and oregano.
• Spread potato wedges on a shallow, lightly oiled baking sheet and bake for about 35 minutes, or until tender but crisp and browned around the edges.
• Correct seasoning.
• To serve, I like to squeeze more lemon juice on the potatoes just before serving!
