UnitsScale
Sweet Potatoes:
2lbs sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
Seasonings:
3 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare sweet potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato cubes with olive oil, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Roast: Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are tender and golden brown on the edges.
Add Parmesan: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese while still hot.
Garnish and serve: Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the pan.
You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick or swap Parmesan for Pecorino Romano for a sharper flavor.
