Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1-inch in size.
Slice the yellow onion into thick slices, separating the layers as needed.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed sweet potatoes and onion slices. Drizzle with olive oil.
Add the salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to the bowl. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the seasoning and oil.
Spread the sweet potatoes and onions evenly onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they arenβt crowded to allow for better roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes, tossing once halfway through to promote even browning.
Remove from the oven when the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and lightly caramelized at the edges.
Transfer the roasted sweet potatoes and onions to a serving dish and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
