Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 375-400°F (190-200°C).
Thoroughly wash and scrub the sweet potatoes, then pat them dry with a clean towel.
Cut the sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch thick rounds. This thickness helps them cook evenly on the grill.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika.
Toss until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and spices.
Arrange the sweet potato slices directly on the preheated grill grates.
Grill the slices for about 8-10 minutes on each side, until they are tender and have clear grill marks.
Remove the sweet potatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish or as a healthy snack option!
