Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes washed and dried
  • 1 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper freshly ground

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • 1 Large Bowl
  • 1 Parchment Paper

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes well. Slice them into uniform ¼-inch thick rounds.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato slices with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the seasoned rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to ensure they get crispy.
  5. Roast for 20-30 minutes, flipping the rounds halfway through, until they are tender and the edges are golden brown and caramelized.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite dip or as a side dish.

Notes

Tip 1: For extra crispy rounds, ensure the sweet potatoes are completely dry before tossing them with oil and spices.
Tip 2: Don't skip the step of flipping the rounds halfway through. This helps both sides get equally crispy and caramelized.
Tip 3: Feel free to experiment with other spices! Onion powder, dried oregano, or a pinch of cayenne pepper are all great additions.
