Ingredients

• 2 lbs sweet potatoes
• 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tbsp fresh rosemary
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into evenly-sized 1-inch cubes to ensure uniform cooking.

Step 3

Finely chop the fresh rosemary and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, olive oil, rosemary, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.

Step 5

Spread the seasoned sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow proper roasting.

Step 6

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through to ensure even browning.

Step 7

Check for doneness by piercing a piece with a fork. The sweet potatoes should be tender with slightly crispy edges.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and serve immediately as a delicious side dish. Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary, if desired.
