Sweet & Smoky Sliced Sweet Potatoes

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Wash and peel the sweet potatoes, then cut them into thin slices (using a mandoline works best, but be careful).

In a small bowl, stir together brown sugar, smoked paprika, rosemary, garlic powder, chipotle powder, salt, and some freshly cracked pepper.

Place the sweet potato slices in a large bowl and drizzle the olive oil over top. Sprinkle the spice mix over the sweet potatoes, then toss until the potatoes are evenly coated in oil and spices.

Arrange the seasoned sweet potato slices in a cast iron skillet, stacked in a row. Cover the skillet with foil and roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and let cook for an additional 15 minutes. Test the sweet potatoes with a fork for doneness. If they’re still firm, allow them to roast for an additional 10–15 minutes. If they become too brown during that time, cover the dish with foil to prevent further browning.
