Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium (about 1 pound) sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
Place the sweet potato cubes in a large bowl. Add olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss until the sweet potatoes are well coated.
Arrange the sweet potato cubes in a single layer in the air fryer's basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
Air fry the sweet potatoes at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to turn and cook them evenly.
Check for doneness by piercing a few cubes with a fork. They should be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Transfer the cooked sweet potatoes to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy as a healthy snack.
