How to Make Cajun Spiced Sweet Potato Wedges

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and scrub 2 large sweet potatoes. Cut each sweet potato lengthwise in half, then cut each half into 3 wedges.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. Toss the sweet potato wedges with the Cajun oil mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the wedges in a single layer on a non-stick baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wedges are tender and golden brown.
  6. Serve immediately. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives (optional). Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tzatziki or nonfat sour cream.
