Seasoned Sweet Potato Chips

Begin by preheating your oven to 400 degrees F.

In the meantime, add the sliced sweet potatoes to a large bowl, and pour in the oil. Gently mix, assuring that all of the potatoes have been lightly oiled.

Mix all of the seasoning and begin sprinkling the potatoes with the mixture, making sure they all get some of the seasoning. Reserve some of the seasoning.

To a lined baking sheet, or multiple baking sheets, begin laying down the potatoes in an individual layer, making sure they don’t overlap.

Place in the oven and cook for about 14 minutes (depending on your oven), then remove them, and turn the potatoes over, cooking for about another 10 minutes or so, until they are nice and crisp, but not burnt.

Keep an eye on them after the flip because all ovens are different and if you do not keep an eye on them, they can begin to burn. If they do, they will have a slightly bitter taste. If some become more crisp than others, simply remove them from the pan and place them in a serving bowl and keep cooking the rest.

Once all of them are crisp, add the remaining seasoning, toss to coat, and serve.

I offered these up to the family one Sunday afternoon while grilling burgers.

The entire family loved them! They were a huge success. I was planning to serve them up with the grilled burgers, but they did not last! They were just that good. Simple, home made, and packed full of that sweet heat. It was a great introduction to something new and interesting – and that is always a success when feeding my kids.
