Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large sweet potatoes, scrubbed and diced into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt until evenly coated.
- Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast for 20 minutes.
- While the potatoes roast, whisk together the sweet chili sauce and honey or maple syrup in a small bowl.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven. Drizzle the glaze mixture over the potatoes and toss gently to coat.
- Return the potatoes to the oven and roast for another 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the glaze is sticky and caramelized.

Notes
- For extra crispiness, ensure the potatoes are in a single layer on the baking sheet.
