Ingredients

  • 4 medium Sweet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 375-400°F (190-200°C).

Step 2

Thoroughly wash and scrub the sweet potatoes, then pat them dry with a clean towel.

Step 3

Cut the sweet potatoes into 1/2-inch thick rounds. This thickness helps them cook evenly on the grill.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and paprika.

Step 5

Toss until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and spices.

Step 6

Arrange the sweet potato slices directly on the preheated grill grates.

Step 7

Grill the slices for about 8-10 minutes on each side, until they are tender and have clear grill marks.

Step 8

Remove the sweet potatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot as a side dish or as a healthy snack option!
