Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 lbs sweet potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese freshly grated
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded to allow for proper crisping.
  4. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the tray and sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the potatoes.
  5. Return to the oven and roast for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the parmesan has formed a golden, crispy crust.
  6. Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately while hot.

Notes

For extra crispiness, ensure the sweet potato cubes are uniform in size and pat them dry with a paper towel before tossing with oil.
