THYME ROASTED SWEET POTATOES



Thyme Roasted Sweet Potatoes image

Sweet potatoes at their easiest! The potatoes slices need to be in single layer against the pan, not on top of one another. Great for a dinner party! Herbes de Provence with thyme or rosemary sprigs can be used instead of just thyme leaves. Serve warm or at room temperature with sprigs for garnish.

Balsamic, Honey & Thyme Roasted Sweet Potatoes image

Easy and delish. Sweet and tangy and the thyme adds a great savory flavor. Just oven roasted. I do like to peel mine which is really the only work needed for this dish. Just toss with the dressing and roast. I serve these with just about anything. They are so simple and good.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Wash and dry the sweet potatoes thoroughly: This will help the thyme and olive oil adhere to the potatoes.
  • Cut the sweet potatoes into evenly sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Toss the sweet potatoes with thyme, olive oil, salt, and pepper: Be sure to coat the potatoes evenly.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them caramelize and develop a crispy exterior.
  • Flip the sweet potatoes halfway through cooking: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Serve the sweet potatoes immediately: They are best enjoyed when they are hot and crispy.
