Recipe Ingredients :
- 3 cups of sweet potato cut into 1/2-inch small chunks (about 2 medium-sized whole sweet potatoes)
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil
- 3/4 tablespoon chipotle pepper powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- ground pepper to taste
How To Make Sweet Potato Chipotle?
- Preheat the oven: Preheat to 400°F / 200°C.
- Chop the sweet potatoes: Cut sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch / 1.25 cm chunks for even roasting.
- Toss with oil: In a large bowl, combine sweet potato chunks with olive oil until well coated.
- Add spices: Sprinkle in chipotle powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, stirring until each piece is evenly coated.
- Arrange on pan: Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on a lined baking sheet.
- Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes or until edges are crispy and centers are soft (test with a fork).
- Serve and enjoy: Serve as a side, in a grain bowl, or in vegan tacos for a smoky, spicy kick.
Recipe Tips
- Cut Evenly: Make sure to chop sweet potatoes into equal-sized chunks, about 1/2-inch each. This helps them cook evenly and get that perfect crispy texture.
- Don’t Overcrowd the Pan: Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer with space between pieces. Overcrowding can make them steam rather than roast, reducing crispiness.
- Adjust Spice Level: Chipotle powder adds a smoky kick, but feel free to reduce it if you prefer milder flavors or add more for extra heat!
- Toss Well in Oil and Spices: Make sure every piece is well coated in oil and spices. This ensures each bite is flavorful and helps the potatoes crisp up nicely.
- Check for Doneness: Bake until edges are crispy and centers are fork-tender. Cooking time can vary, so check a piece for softness before removing from the oven.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: First, let the leftover Sweet Potato Chipotle cool to room temperature. Then, transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Freeze: After the Sweet Potato Chipotle has cooled to room temperature, place it in a freezer-safe container or bag and freeze for up to 2 months. To thaw, move it to the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
- Reheat: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and heat for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through and crispy
