Crispy Lemon Garlic Sweet Potato Rounds
Ingredients:
2 large sweet potatoes, scrubbed and sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds (no need to peel)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional, for smoky flavor)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Flaky sea salt (for finishing, optional)
Directions:
Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
Season the rounds: In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, pepper, and paprika. Add the sweet potato rounds and toss to coat evenly.
Arrange for roasting: Spread the seasoned sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they don’t overlap for maximum crispiness.
Roast to golden perfection: Roast for 20 minutes, then flip each round and roast for another 10–15 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy and the centers are tender.
Finish with flair: Once out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley and a little flaky sea salt for a delightful crunch and burst of freshness.
Serve hot: These are perfect as a side dish, appetizer, or snack—and they reheat beautifully too!
