Spicy Grilled Sweet Potato Wedges
Ingredients
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Instructions
1
Preheat your outdoor grill to a medium heat setting, ensuring the grates are warm and ready for cooking.
2
Next, give your sweet potatoes a thorough cleaning under cold running water to remove any dirt or debris.
3
Cut each sweet potato into 8 long, thin wedges and place them in a bowl.
4
Drizzle the wedges with 2 tablespoons of oil, making sure they are lightly coated.
5
In a separate small bowl, combine the remaining olive oil, paprika, salt, garlic powder, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper.
6
Place the sweet potato wedges on the grill at a 90-degree angle to the grates, and then lower the heat to a low setting.
7
Grill the potatoes over low heat, turning them occasionally, until they are tender and soft, taking around 16 to 18 minutes.
8
Using a spoon or brush, coat the potatoes with the oil mixture on both sides.
9
Return the sweet potato wedges to the grill for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, allowing them to absorb the flavors.
10
Transfer the potatoes to a plate and serve.
