How to Make Chili Roasted Rutabaga

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Peel 2 medium rutabagas (about 2 pounds total) and cut into 2-inch long by 1-inch wide chunks.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the rutabaga chunks with the spice mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  5. Transfer the rutabagas to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper, arranging them in a single layer.
  6. Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the rutabagas are tender and slightly caramelized.
