Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Sweet potatoes
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into thin slices, approximately 1/8 inch thick, resembling chips. Thinner slices will result in crispier potatoes.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Test if the oil is ready by dropping a small piece of sweet potato into it. If it sizzles and rises to the surface, the oil is hot enough.
Carefully place a batch of sweet potato slices into the hot oil in a single layer. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan, as this will prevent them from getting crispy.
Fry the sweet potato slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
While hot, sprinkle the fried sweet potatoes with sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Toss gently to evenly coat each slice with the seasoning.
Repeat the frying process with the remaining sweet potato slices until all are cooked.
Serve immediately as a snack or a side dish. Enjoy the crispy and flavorful Paleo fried sweet potatoes!
