Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
Slice the sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Consistent thickness ensures even cooking.
Lightly spray both sides of the sweet potato slices with olive oil spray to coat. This helps to keep them from sticking to the grill and encourages even browning.
In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly on both sides of the sweet potato slices, ensuring even coverage for enhanced flavor.
Place the sweet potato slices directly onto the grill grates. Close the grill lid and cook for about 5-7 minutes.
Flip the slices gently with a spatula and close the grill lid again. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, or until the slices are tender and have distinct grill marks.
Test the sweet potatoes for doneness by piercing them with a fork. They should be tender and easy to insert the fork into.
Remove the sweet potato slices from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate. Serve warm as a delightful side dish or snack.
