Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the sweet potatoes thoroughly, then cut them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Toss the slices with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
Arrange the sweet potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and tender.
While the sweet potatoes roast, prepare the G Nut Special Sauce. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger and cook for another minute until aromatic.
Stir in the tomato paste, paprika, and ground cumin, cooking for about 1 minute to meld the flavors.
Add the peanut butter, coconut milk, and vegetable broth to the saucepan, whisking until smooth. Reduce the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to a serving platter. Drizzle the G Nut Special Sauce generously over the sweet potatoes.
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for a zesty kick.
Enjoy your G Nut Special Sauce and Sweet Potatoes as a wholesome main dish or side!
