Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with olive oil.
Wash and peel the Japanese sweet potatoes. Cut them into cubes of approximately 1 inch.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, fresh rosemary, and paprika. Mix well to form a seasoning mixture.
Add the sweet potato cubes to the bowl and toss until the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning mixture.
Spread the sweet potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This will help them roast evenly and become crisp.
Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, stir, and turn the sweet potatoes to ensure even roasting.
Return them to the oven and roast for another 15 minutes, or until they are tender and crispy on the outside.
Remove from the oven and allow the roasted sweet potatoes to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy your keto-friendly perfectly roasted sweet potatoes!
