Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F/190°C).
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
Slice the sweet potatoes into even rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the sweet potato slices to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Carefully place the sweet potato slices onto the grill in a single layer, making sure they do not overlap.
Grill the sweet potato slices for 8-10 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
Once cooked, remove the sweet potato slices from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving, and enjoy!
