Ingredients
The following ingredients have 2 Servings
- 3 large sweet potatoes, (peeled (if desired) and sliced into thin 1/2-inch (thick) strips)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 garlic cloves finely minced or pressed
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley
- 3 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro
- 3 tablespoons freshly chopped basil
- 8 ounce feta block, (crumbled)
- 3/4 cup full-fat or 2% plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
Instruction
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with nonstick spray. Set aside. Heat butter in a small saucepan (or the microwave) until just melted. Remove from any heat and then add in garlic cloves, stirring well
- Rinse sweet potatoes well with water then pat completely dry with towels. Add to a large bowl and toss with olive oil, garlic butter, salt and pepper. Toss very well to coat. Spread sweet potatoes out in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake for 20 minutes, remove and toss, then bake for 15-20 minutes longer. Sometimes I check within 10 minutes and toss again, and occasionally after the 15-20 minutes, I give them another 5-10 or so. I know using a wire rack can be a pain but it really helps crisp all sides. Try not to crowd the sweet potatoes and if necessary, use a second sheet/rack.
- Remove and let cool slightly. Remove the wire rack or place on a large plate and cover in parmesan and fresh herbs, tossing and tossing to coat. If needed, season a bit more too. You can even add some more garlic butter if you wish. Dip in creamy feta!
