Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
Step 2
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds, ensuring the slices are even for uniform cooking.
Step 3
Place the sweet potato slices in a large mixing bowl and drizzle the olive oil over them. Toss to coat each slice evenly.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this spice mixture over the sweet potato slices, tossing again to evenly coat them.
Step 5
Arrange the sweet potato slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they do not overlap to allow even roasting.
Step 6
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through cooking. They should be golden brown with slightly crisp edges when done.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let the slices cool for 5 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
Step 8
Serve warm as a side dish, snack, or appetizer. Enjoy!
