- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Wash and scrub the sweet potatoes under running water, then dry them with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 3
Cut the sweet potatoes into even-sized cubes, about 1 inch each, to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 4
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet potato cubes, minced garlic, olive oil, fresh rosemary, thyme leaves, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 6
Toss the sweet potatoes in the bowl until they are thoroughly coated with the olive oil and spices.
Step 7
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with a bit of olive oil.
Step 8
Spread the sweet potato cubes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there is space between the pieces for even roasting.
Step 9
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Step 10
About halfway through the roasting time, stir the sweet potatoes gently to promote even browning.
Step 11
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the sweet potatoes cool slightly before serving.
Step 12
Serve the Paleo Batata Doce Assada warm as a side dish or as a component of a hearty Paleo meal.
