Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into 1-inch cubes for even roasting.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Add the sweet potatoes to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoned oil mixture.
Spread the sweet potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even cooking.
Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even browning.
Once the sweet potatoes are tender and golden brown around the edges, remove them from the oven.
Transfer the roasted sweet potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish with your favorite main course.
