Ingredients
- 2 large Sweet potatoes
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into thin slices, approximately 1/8 inch thick, resembling chips. Thinner slices will result in crispier potatoes.
Step 2
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Test if the oil is ready by dropping a small piece of sweet potato into it. If it sizzles and rises to the surface, the oil is hot enough.
Step 3
Carefully place a batch of sweet potato slices into the hot oil in a single layer. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan, as this will prevent them from getting crispy.
Step 4
Fry the sweet potato slices for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 5
While hot, sprinkle the fried sweet potatoes with sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Toss gently to evenly coat each slice with the seasoning.
Step 6
Repeat the frying process with the remaining sweet potato slices until all are cooked.
Step 7
Serve immediately as a snack or a side dish. Enjoy the crispy and flavorful Paleo fried sweet potatoes!
