Ingredients
Method
Step 1: Preheat oven.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Prepare the sweet potatoes.
- Peel the sweet potatoes (optional) and cut them into evenly sized 1-inch cubes so they cook evenly.
Step 3: Boil
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the cubed sweet potatoes and boil for 8–10 minutes, until slightly fork-tender but not fully soft (helps make them extra soft!)
Step 4: Drain.
- Strain the potatoes and let them sit for a few minutes to steam dry. This helps them crisp up in the oven.
Step 5: Add oil.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil or spray lightly with butter spray.
Step 6: Season.
- In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, oregano, parsley, cumin, thyme, and paprika.
- Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the potatoes and gently toss or use a spatula to coat each cube thoroughly.
Step 7: Roast.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes. Around the 20-minute mark, use a spatula to flip and move the potatoes to ensure even browning.
Step 8: Serve.
- Remove from the oven once golden and lightly crispy on the edges. Serve fresh and enjoy!
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best texture.
