Description

Say goodbye to bland sweet potatoes—these savory roasted cubes are the perfect balance of crispy edges, tender centers, and bold seasoning. Whether you’re serving them as a side, tossing them into bowls, or sneaking them straight from the pan, they’re a simple and irresistible addition to any meal.


Ingredients

Scale

2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary

Salt and black pepper to taste

Optional twist:

1/4 teaspoon cayenne for heat

A splash of balsamic vinegar for tang

Sprinkle of grated Parmesan after roasting


Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil for easy cleanup.

Toss sweet potato cubes with olive oil and all seasonings in a large bowl until evenly coated.

Spread on the baking sheet in a single layer, giving space between pieces for crispiness.

Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crisp on the edges.

Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a dash of finishing salt.
