Ingredients for Baked Chipotle Sweet Potato Fries

  • Sweet Potato
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Sea Salt
  • Chili
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

How to Make Baked Chipotle Sweet Potato Fries

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Wash and scrub 2 large sweet potatoes. Cut them into 1/2-inch thick fries.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato fries with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder. Toss to coat evenly.
  4. Spread the fries in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure crispiness.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes.
  6. Flip the fries carefully and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until tender and golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
