Description

Delicious roasted sweet potato rounds topped with tangy feta cheese, sweet honey, and fresh parsley. This easy recipe features perfectly seasoned, golden-brown sweet potato slices that are roasted to tender perfection and make a delightful side dish or appetizer.

Ingredients

Sweet Potatoes

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, washed and scrubbed

Seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Toppings

  • ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for roasting the sweet potato slices.
  2. Slice Sweet Potatoes: Carefully slice the washed sweet potatoes into ½-inch thick rounds for even cooking and perfect texture.
  3. Toss with Seasoning: In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato rounds with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Toss well until every slice is evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
  4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Lay the seasoned sweet potato slices out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don’t overlap for even roasting.
  5. Roast Sweet Potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes. Turn the slices halfway through cooking to help them brown and cook evenly until tender and golden brown.
  6. Cool Slightly: Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes to firm up and cool slightly before topping.
  7. Arrange on Platter: Transfer the roasted sweet potato rounds to a serving platter, spreading them out attractively.
  8. Add Feta Cheese: Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese generously over the warm sweet potato rounds to add a tangy and creamy contrast.
  9. Drizzle Honey & Garnish: Drizzle the sweet potatoes with honey to add sweetness and finish by garnishing with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and fresh flavor.
  10. Serve: Serve these roasted sweet potato rounds warm or at room temperature as a flavorful side dish or appetizer.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix.
  • Make sure to slice the sweet potatoes evenly to ensure uniform roasting.
  • You can substitute feta cheese with goat cheese or omit for a vegan option and drizzle more honey or maple syrup instead.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently before serving.
