Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 large avocado
- 1 medium lime
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 small jalapeño
- 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup diced red onion
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into thin sticks, resembling French fries.
In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, ground cumin, and ground black pepper until well-coated.
Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overcrowding, ensuring even cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are crisp and golden brown, flipping them halfway through cooking.
While the fries are baking, prepare the avocado lime sauce. In a small blender or food processor, combine the avocado flesh, juice from the lime, and chopped fresh cilantro. Blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
For the toppings, finely chop the jalapeño, halve the cherry tomatoes, and dice the red onion.
Once the sweet potato fries are done, transfer them to a large serving platter.
Drizzle the avocado lime sauce over the fries.
Top with the chopped jalapeño, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced red onion.
Garnish with additional cilantro if desired and serve immediately.
