Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 large sweet potatoes scrubbed
  • 2 tablespoons Cayenne Pepper Infused Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley optional
  • 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese optional

Equipment

  • 1 Large mixing bowl For tossing the wedges evenly
  • 1 Sheet Pan Use a large pan so the potatoes have room
  • 1 sheet Parchment paper Helps with easy cleanup
  • 1 Chef’s knife For cutting the sweet potatoes
  • 1 Cutting board Stable surface for prep
  • 1 Spatula For flipping the wedges during roasting

Method
 

Instructions
  1. 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. 2. Cut each sweet potato into 8 wedges, keeping the pieces as even as possible.
  3. 3. Place the wedges in a large bowl and add the Cayenne Pepper Infused Olive Oil, olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss until every wedge is coated.
  4. 4. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on the sheet pan with a little space between each piece.
  5. 5. Roast for 15 minutes, then flip the wedges and roast for 12 to 15 minutes more until the edges are browned and the centers are tender.
  6. 6. Move the wedges to a serving plate and finish with parsley or Parmesan if using. Serve warm.

Notes

For the best texture, avoid overcrowding the pan. If your sweet potatoes are extra large, you may need a few more minutes in the oven. Keep the seasoning balanced so the Cayenne Pepper Infused Olive Oil stays present without overpowering the sweet potato flavor.
