Description

Grilled Sweet Potatoes are a simple, healthy side dish that brings out the natural sweetness of the potatoes with a delightful smoky flavor.


Ingredients

  • 3 large sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Optional: Fresh herbs (like parsley or cilantro) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Place the sweet potato slices in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Toss to evenly coat.
  3. Arrange the sweet potato slices on the grill. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
  4. Remove from the grill and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • For additional flavor, you can sprinkle some brown sugar or drizzle maple syrup over the sweet potatoes before grilling.
  • Serve with a side of sour cream or yogurt mixed with lime juice and zest for a refreshing contrast
