Ingredients
For the Sweet Potatoes
- Sweet potatoes, sliced into ½-inch rounds
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Black pepper (freshly cracked if possible)
- Smoked paprika
For the Toppings
- Feta cheese, crumbled
- Honey
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Optional: Substitute feta with goat cheese or cotija for a different twist.
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash and slice the sweet potatoes into even ½-inch rounds so they cook at the same rate.
- Place the slices in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then add salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Toss well until each piece is evenly coated.
- Spread the rounds out on the baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they aren’t overlapping—this helps them crisp up instead of steam.
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden and the centers are soft.
- Remove from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes so they hold their texture.
- Arrange on a serving plate, sprinkle with crumbled feta, drizzle lightly with honey, and finish with fresh parsley.
- Serve warm or slightly cooled.
Serving Tips
Serve warm or at room temperature. These rounds pair well with roasted meats, fresh salads, or as part of a sharing platter.
