Ingredients
2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 lbs), scrubbed and sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
Pinch of smoked paprika (optional)
3 tablespoons honey
4 ounces (about 1 cup) crumbled feta cheese
2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
2 tablespoons fresh parsley or chives, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: In a large bowl, toss the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika (if using) until evenly coated.
Step 3: Arrange the seasoned sweet potato rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overlapping to allow for even roasting. If necessary, use two baking sheets.
Step 4: Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping the rounds halfway through, until they are tender when pierced with a fork and have golden-brown edges.
Step 5: Remove the sweet potato rounds from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. While still warm, generously drizzle the honey over all the rounds.
Step 6: Evenly sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese over the honey-drizzled sweet potatoes.
Step 7: Finish by drizzling the balsamic glaze over the top. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley or chives, if desired, and serve immediately.
Notes
For best results, do not overcrowd the baking sheet when roasting the sweet potatoes, as this will prevent them from caramelizing properly. Ensure sweet potatoes are sliced uniformly for even cooking. This dish is best served warm.
