Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Small sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1-inch chunks to ensure even roasting.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss everything until the sweet potatoes are well-coated in the spices and oil.
Spread the coated sweet potato chunks in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, remove the baking sheet, toss the sweet potatoes to promote even cooking, and scatter fresh rosemary over the top.
Return the sweet potatoes to the oven and continue roasting for another 10 minutes or until they are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve immediately as a side dish or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
