Add the orange zest and boil for 2 minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water. Drain on paper towels. Just before serving, set the roasting pan over moderate heat. Add the orange zest to the potatoes and cook, stirring often, until the zest is slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
