  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cut each sweet potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 1/2-inch thick wedges.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato wedges with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, rosemary, pepper, and salt until evenly coated.
Roasting
  1. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t touching.
  2. Roast for 20 minutes, then flip each wedge carefully. Return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes, or until deeply golden brown, crispy on the edges, and fork-tender.
Serving
  1. Serve immediately as a side for burgers, salads, or grain bowls.
