Grilled Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes on the grill? Heck yes! Thin-sliced sweet potato slabs grill up tender and perfect on the BBQ. Rub 'em with spices and top with cilantro and lime for the side of the summer.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 pounds sweet potatoes scrubbed well and sliced lengthwise 1/4-inch thick
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 limes juiced
- 1/4 cup cilantro leaves
Instructions
- Preheat your grill to medium-high (direct heat).
- In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, chili powder, smoked paprika, and kosher salt.
- Brush the sliced sweet potatoes with olive oil and rub both sides with the brown sugar spice mix.
- Lay potatoes on the grill and cook until grill lines form, 5-6 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until cooked through and tender, about 5-6 more minutes. Remove from the grill and lay on a platter. Squeeze lime juice over the top and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve immediately.
